what is the best way to drain the oil?
I do not have access to a lift, but I do have a full shop floor, and floor jacks.
I pull the filter, replace it and the large o-ring, the two small orings on the bolt don't come with the filter... I will change them another time. then jack the car up front as high as it will go. the oil pan looks like most of the oil is in the sump, but I bet a quart or so gets in the back of the pan when jacked up this way. Should I jack up the rear as well? maybe, use ramps up front and jack up the rear? How do you guys raise your vehicles to get the most oil out of the pan? I only got about 6 quarts in after draining my sump, so I figure atleast 1 quart is still in there. not to mention the oil in the cooler and lines. but I know of no way to drain that. hints suggestions? ARRGH. ![]() John
