Drain for me too Andrew, but if there's a problem the particles will be in the filter as well.yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

You can also do a visual inspection while you’re under there, I found an oil leak on the “sucking” pipe connector It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Every 6 month out with the old C1 and in with the new C1.

Oh, supersiecosse, that's interesting. A couple of questions: I believe the pipe you use goes down to the bottom of the sump. Is it simply a question of attaching the pump hose to the top of it and away you go, or do you have to feed a hose down the pipe to the bottom? And secondly, about how long does the extraction take?

@Pedros....
The rubber tubing (fuel hose), is attached to the top of said pipe. [Snug fit].
And it takes about 10minutes fella using a 12V Auxiliary Oil/Fuel pump purchased from 'Wish' for £12.
Quick, Effective, Clean and Easy.
Though others prefer to pull the Plug and drop the Oil.
