Whats the easiest way for a driveway mechanic? Drain it then put it on a rotisserie on its left side to fill? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)
I have tried the gallon jug with the plastic pumps before. What a mess and time consuming and $%#@&*(. Those plastic pumps are not universal threads so you have to buy a new pump if you use different oil than before and even then, the cheapo pumps only last a time or two before they break. Must be a better way. Other tips, get a second magnetic drain plug and use it in the fill hole, 2x the metal crud collection power. Use antiseize on the fill and drain plugs. |
