For engine oil? Get a Pela one, designed for the job and to makers' o/e spec for cars without sump plugs such as those fitted with the Mercedes OM660 Diesel engines.

On the other hand, if you're after it for borrowing your neighbour's fuel by cover of night.....

mostly for doing oil changes but if another fuel crisis hits who knows

ive had a look at the pela pump, any idea where i can get one?

Locally, yes, but that's probably not much use to you out there in France. They must be available there though, since they're universal among Mercedes-Benz's Smart service facilities and they build the things in France.

Has Google reached France yet? maybe GIYF. Sorry; should have said GETA.
