Re: Drop oil pan / not pull engine??? 1800 69

Angelo --

In addition to Matt's and Dan's good advice, I'd suggest you change the oil early several times, and be sure to dump the oil immediately (like within 1-2 minutes) after a long, hot run (like 35-50 miles on the highway).

This way all the gunk is still suspended (hasn't settled back into the pan) and the hot oil will be thinner, so will flow out more quickly and thoroughly. Also, let it drain for several hours or even overnight, if possible.
