'GREAT VALUE, WORKS FOR MOST JOBS!'
Strengths:
Easy to use, and holds enough oil for most jobs
Weaknesses:
The "dipstick" probe was too thick for the ageing peugeot engines my boat. Worked great on my car though.
Overall:
Great value compared to most on the market, well made and easy to use. Probably better for more modern (less than 10 years) engines.

'MARVELLOUS!'
Strengths:
Will lift liquids out of engines or bilge tanks with only a few strokes to create a vacuum. effortless and the pump does not get contaminated.
Weaknesses:
Can get very messy and the feed pipe will block but is easily cleared.
Overall:
I had a part tank of contaminated diesel in the bottom of the boat. Using this pump it very easily removed all of the spoilt fuel. Worth every penny as my first view was to syphon by mouth the fuel. It is part of the boat kit now and will remain so. A very useful item.
