Thanks for your kind words Sixto. Adding a stiffener is a good idea if you are using thin wall polyethylene tubing that will definitely go mushy in hot fluid. Best to use much more rigid Low Density Polyethylene tubing in the first place as it will hold up to hot fluid. I thought of using metal refrigeration tubing, but it will not easily slip into the tube. A vacuum brake bleeding rig would be a good tool to do the actual sucking of the excess fluid, or Harbor Freight or actually any aquarium store would sell a squeeze bulb "siphon pump" for about $6. I'll do a bit of research as to what will work best and post it so it can be easily found. No sense in reinventing the wheel every time. If anyone comes up with a product for sale using this technique, I demand a bottle of Cabernet as my commission.
