Suck it Bucket
Added 2023-08-04 17:47:03 +0000 UTCJust a quick tip video I thought you guys might like. I'm working to finish the clutch pack replacement on the Massey Backhoe, but it's dragging on too long.

NoI need to change the oil in my international dt466e. I can crawl underneath there and undo the oil drain but I have oil shooting all over and it's going to come out there fast. I think this would work better I'm not in a hurry to suck it out. But it's around 7 or 8 gallons of oil and I know I'd spill some switching 5 gallon buckets.

2023-08-05 14:19:57 +0000 UTCI don't think you would have an issue with anything flying across, but you can stagger the big or small hose heights if you like.

2023-08-05 08:36:05 +0000 UTCI’m guessing you want to shove the hose sucking the (insert item here) down so that it’s closer to the bottom of the bucket to avoid inadvertently having whatever drips out of the little hose immediately fly across the bucket and get sucked into the shopvac? Or do you have another solution for that?

2023-08-04 20:14:24 +0000 UTCHell, if you have a broken vacuum cleaner, just take the attachment, stick it in place of that hose and you can likely wet/dry clean most things without needing to buy a wet/dry carpet cleaner. That is nifty not just for sucking up oil in the intake valley. You could hose down the engine and go over it with a decent vacuum attachment/brush to clean it and dry it off quicker or even spiff up an interior without paying $80-200 for another vacuum.

2023-08-04 18:53:47 +0000 UTCIf you used it for dust, I suggest not mixing the buckets...
