I know, I will be installing one WHEN I have the oil pan off. I'm just wondering if anyone has been successful in maybe vacuuming through a tube snaking down through the front timing cover through the oil fill. Or can it be done through the dipstick tube in motorboat style? It looks to be too far back to reach the front sump. I just hate to dilute a fresh charge with a quart of the old stuff. I had one of those vacuum deals at my old job but I no longer have access to it. Any DIY vacuum ideas?
