It's like a big syringe... and on the end a big rubber looking thing you press on and it brings up the liquid in to the syringe?
I've seen them used in "Charmed", the tv show of White Witches, to take some of their potions from the main pot to put in potion bottles.
I think it begins with "P..........." - can't remember what my sister called it.... think it sounds foreign which is why I'm having trouble remembering.
I need one for helping to withdraw a batch of the old brake fluid from my brake fluid reservoir of my car... before bleeding the brakes.
Thanks.

It is called a baster. You should get one quite cheaply from Wilkinsons or Woolworths or similar, but please be aware that you will not be able to use it in the kitchen once you have used it on the car!!!

Brake fluid Baster

I agree with everyone else to its pretty much called a baster or commonly known as a turkey baster due to its rather large size, *coughs* but the comment about anal irrigation was rather gross lol. I cant even look at a turkey baster anymore without thinking about that comment. I rather use a ladle. :D
but i did find something similar to what u are actually looking for, its a tube and a bag. but please keep away from body parts. >_<

It is a turkey baster.
If you ever read the book Presumed Innocent by Scott Turow (or saw the Harrison Ford movie of it) you will find that another use of turkey basters is the key clue in solving a rape/murder blamed on a prosecuting attorney. They are very versatile.

It would be something like a baster syringe. There is one pictured on this website:
