John Dow Deluxe Poly Oil Drain (27 Gal)

You're not stopping every few cars to dump a tank, and you're not stuck with one draining method either. The John Dow Deluxe Poly Oil Drain gives you a 27-gallon poly tank built to run gravity drains for straightforward jobs, then switch to pump evacuation when you need speed. Position the 360-degree swivel funnel wherever the vehicle sits, and the 16in deep-drawn offset steel funnel with its expanded metal screen keeps drain plugs and debris out of the tank while you work.

When it's full, hook up shop air and let it self-evacuate through the 6' discharge hose. The non-drip spout means you're not chasing drips across the floor afterward, and the fixed air regulator with pressure relief valve keeps the whole system from over-pressurizing. Handles on all four sides and 4in swivel casters mean one tech can reposition it solo, no second set of hands needed. GSG keeps replacement funnels and hoses in stock, so a worn part doesn't take the whole drain out of service.
