Oil change advice needed
« on: June 23, 2007, 12:09:07 PM »
I need to change the oil in my 455 and it looks darn near impossible to do. Does anyone make some kind of a suction device or am I going to have to lift the whole motor out. No wonder the oil looks black as hell. Does anyone know any marine repair places in the I.E. that they would recommend? Thanks

I have seen things that suck it out via the dip stick tube..

here is a solution to your problem....

http://www.cpperformance.com/SearchResult.aspx?CategoryID=140

drain tube....hook it up to your drain plug and its just loose in your bildge...when you wanna drain your oil, feed the tube out of your bildge drain on your pump. I think every boat should have one of these.

I heard of people pulling the drain plug and letting it drain into their bildge, then draining it out the bildge drain....then whipe the bildge down when done.

....also heard of people pulling the plug before the road trip back home and letting it drop on the road accross the desert lol

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll look into it but there isn't much room to wwork with. May have to pull motor to install it but thanks again for the link. looks pretty slick.

There should be 3 pieces with it, the line, the plug for the end of the line, and an adaptor to go from the line to the oil pan's drain plug threads. Install the adaptor first and you won't half to pull the engine to install it.

My neighbor has a drill driven pump that he feeds down the dipstick tube.  I havn't used or seen it yet but he said it works great.  I believe he told me he got it from Home Depot, I'll find out for sure later tonight.

Normally I try to avoid Home Despot.  You guys are giving me reasons to rethink the whole thing. Damn and I was saving so much money too. ;D
