OBD Pump Suction Drain Imdicar 12 V — OBD JMB-97380 automotive fluid pump

The OBD Pump Suction Drain Imdicar 12 V is a 12‑volt automotive suction and drain pump designed to transfer and remove vehicle service fluids. This compact powered pump handles extraction of engine oil, coolant, brake fluid and other compatible liquids used in routine maintenance and roadside interventions. The unit is intended for use where convenient portable pumping is needed for fluid changes, top-ups and controlled draining without relying on hand pumps or gravity alone.

Advantages

This 12 V suction and drain pump provides steady powered extraction, reducing the time and physical effort required compared with manual methods. Its portable design supports use in workshops, garages and mobile service situations. The pump is suitable for multiple types of automotive fluids, offering a single tool for a range of common service tasks. Simple electrical connection to a vehicle power source allows operation on site without additional power equipment.

Suitable for

• Extracting engine oil during oil changes
• Removing coolant from radiators and cooling systems
• Draining brake fluid during brake service and bleeding
• Portable fluid removal for roadside repairs and mobile servicing
• Workshops and garages performing regular vehicle maintenance

When it may not be suitable

This pump is designed for automotive service fluids and may not be suitable for highly corrosive chemicals, strong solvents or flammable fuels unless confirmed compatible with the pump materials. It is not intended as a permanent fixed-installation pump for continuous industrial use; it is optimized for intermittent, portable automotive service tasks.

Key specifications

• Operating voltage: 12 V DC
• Intended media: engine oil, coolant, brake fluid and similar vehicle service liquids
• Portable, powered suction and drain design for on-site use
• Suitable for workshop and mobile technician applications

How to use

Connect the pump to a compatible 12 V vehicle power source following the manufacturer’s connection method. Insert the supplied suction hose into the fluid reservoir or sump, secure the hose as required, and start the pump to begin extraction. Monitor the flow and stop the pump when the desired fluid level is reached. After use, drain remaining fluid from the hose, wipe external surfaces, and store the unit and accessories in a clean, dry place.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm compatibility with the types of fluids you intend to transfer or remove
• Ensure your vehicle or portable power supply can provide a 12 V connection for operation
• Check that portable pump flow rate and hose length meet your workspace and service needs
• Consider whether a portable intermittent-use pump fits your workshop’s workload versus a fixed or higher-duty pump

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and eye protection, when handling automotive fluids. Dispose of extracted fluids in accordance with local regulations. Inspect hoses and connections for wear before each use, and avoid pumping highly abrasive or chemically aggressive liquids unless confirmed safe for the pump materials.
