12V DC Pump Replaces 8878 Rotary
This 12V DC powered pump replaces the rotary pump on the 8878 Low Profile Oil Drain. It operates on DC power from a 12V battery or battery tester. The unit includes all fittings and hardware required for installation. An on/off switch and alligator style power leads make operation straightforward.
Suits Technicians Servicing 8878 Drains
This pump suits technicians who need a direct replacement for the rotary pump on an existing 8878 Low Profile Oil Drain. It is not for buyers who need a pump for a different drain model or a different voltage requirement. It is also not for users who require an AC powered pump or a unit without alligator style power leads.
12V DC Power Source Compatibility
The single specification that decides fitment is the 12V DC power requirement. The pump must be connected to a 12V battery or battery tester to function. Verify that your 8878 Low Profile Oil Drain uses this specific rotary pump configuration before ordering. The transparent color allows visual fluid monitoring during use.

Questions about this item
Will the 8815 pump bolt straight onto my existing 8878 Low Profile Oil Drain without new fittings?
Yes, the 8815 is designed to replace the rotary pump on the 8878 drain and the package includes all fittings and hardware needed for the swap.
How can I verify the 12 V pump is running correctly once I connect the alligator leads to a battery?
Flip the built-in on/off switch; the motor should start immediately and deliver a steady flow of fluid through the drain.
Does the 8815 come with its own power source or do I need to supply a 12 V battery separately?
The pump draws power from an external 12 V battery or battery tester, which is not included; the box supplies the pump, all fittings, hardware and the alligator-style leads.
