The upper Turbo Drain Tube came loose easily but I had to twist it around to find a spot where I could knock down on it to compress the Lower Turbo Drain Tube down into it’s hole. (Pic; a piece of wood would have been better but I had none small enough so I stuck my Punch into one of the holes and knocked it down.

After that you need to twist the upper Turbo Drain Tube around and up until you find the “Sweet Spot” where you can push it up to the highest point and still be able to pull the Lower Drain Tube out from under it. I found that the Bell Mouth of the upper Tube had a tough time getting over the top of the lower Tube. (Because of this before I installed it I ground of ¼ inch of the Bell.) Anyway I go the upper Tube out.

Next I had read that you could put a Hose Clamp around the Lower Drain Tube and pry up on that to get the Tube up and out.
This did not work for me. The Clamp kept sliding and also the tube got a little dented.

Since I had the Oil Pan off I decided to push the Lower Tube up and out from the Bottom and found that a 16mm Deep Socket I had fit well for that and the Tube came out easily. (pic)
