Photo DIY- Motor Oil Change via EXTRACTION METHOD

I don't want start a big debate about "Drain VS. Extract".

All I know is: You can do this job in your "Sunday Bests", and not get dirty. Say that about a "drain" job.

Plus, I swear I get "several hundred" cc's more oil out. No wonder MB RECOMMENDS this method.

Of course, a motorized extractor is much easier. This was my mobile, "Cheap-O" alternative.

BE SURE THE ENGINE IS WARM! (NOT HOT!, JUST "WARM"). It will go WAY FASTER, plus you are putting the Garbage in the oil pan into "solution" to be removed.

Yes, I am using Synthetic. This is the gamble I'm taking, in hopes that I can extend the change intervals to once per year, so I can do the work myself when I visit. I will keep you advised as to any "leaks" changing from Dino to Syn. 0W-40 Mobil 1
