I'm looking for an easy way to get small quantities of hydraulic oil from the 5 gallon bucket. I'm getting too old and weak to mess with pouring it and Wondering if there's a pump made to fit these cans that a member can recommend for transfering a quart or 2 at a time to a funnel pour container.

Here is what I use. No need for a funnel - pump straight into the machine.

I buy engine oil in 5 gal containers when it on sale, then use the pimp I posted to easily get the oil into the tractor. The pump works good and the hose with the metal hook stays where you put it.

That looks nice but reviews are saying it doesn't fit in the plastic spouts and once you remove the spout there no way to retain it. Do your cans have spouts?
I bought this pump about 5 months ago and have used it twice in 5 gallon pails with sports. Never had a problem. Maybe I fortunate, or maybe they improved them after complaints.

I used one of those cheap drill-powered pumps. The first one worked great for about a year. I couldn't get the second one, different brand, to prime. I don't recommend this method.
