Frequently Asked Questions
What fluids can I extract with this combination unit?
This fluid evacuator works with engine oil, transmission fluid, gear oil, power steering fluid, and coolant. The chemical-resistant components handle all automotive fluids safely. Always check fluid temperature before extraction (maximum 212°F for bowl option).
How does this compare to separate vacuum extractors and oil drains?
The JDI-20COMBO combines the features of dedicated units like the JDI-25HDC self-evacuating drain and JDI-20EV vacuum extractor. You get both functions in one space-saving unit, plus the convenience of using either method without switching equipment.
Do I need the bowl option (JDI-20COMBO-B)?
The 2-gallon transparent bowl option lets you check fluid quantity and quality before discharging into the tank. This helps identify contamination or verify fluid amounts for warranty documentation. The bowl adds 10 pounds but provides valuable inspection capability.
What's included with the probe and adapter kit?
You receive 6 different suction probes for various dipstick tube sizes, plus 3 OE-style adapters for manufacturer-specific applications. All probes store conveniently in the included on-board storage tube, keeping them organized and accessible.
