I am winterizing the I/O on my boat. i have read the threads but I am having trouble finding the tool to change the oil. What is it called? It seems to be an oil pump that slides down the dipstick tube. Any idea where I can get it?
My 2 cents.....I prefer the vacuum hand pump models over the 12v motor pumps....I had the 12v type and it didn't last very long and was always temperamental about pumping. I went to use it last year and it wouldn't suck the oil up anymore. You can usually get the 12v types at Walmart too.
With either style, you need to warm the engine up prior to sucking the oil out. It's much easier to get the oil flowing when it's warm.
