    Buc,
    Yes, the cheap bottle pumps for gear lube work well. I used one for quite a while and filled a lot of gearcases before I got a bucket pump. The biggest thing with the bottle pumps is that they are slow, especially when the weather gets cold. I find myself changing a lot of gear oil in cold weather when I’m winterizing so the bucket pump was a great purchase. I got lucky and got one from a friend pretty cheap. I still keep a bottle pump around though.
