See that hose fitting at the top of the tube that you stuck your skinny tube into? Get a pump that threads onto those threads. Way easier to get the oil out that way.
I've tried all possible ways and still can't get all the oil out of my Volvo. I think it's just the way things are designed.
As long as you got that skinny tube down to the point where the dipstick tube curves over to the bottom of the pan you did. If you get the pump that threads into that garden hose fitting, you know you will for sure.Thanks Bruce.
Had no idea what that was for. My first inboard.
Did I get all of the old oil out this way?
I remember you asking about this. You use a pump that threads into the garden hose fitting at the top of the dipstick tube?I usually can get all but the last 1.5 qtr for some reason.
I've used several methods which includeing the tube within tube method and the garden hose screw on adapter method. Electric pump and vacuum hand pump, bow up and bow down, just about every method there is.I remember you asking about this.
