Suggestion: Complete a break-in oil change on your new Land Cruiser

[GR8Santini]

I used a 8L vacuum fluid extractor pump yesterday for my 5K. The intake hose fits down the T24A dipstick really well & can feel it tap on the bottom of the oil pan. Pulled warm oil out in less than 8 min. Worked well. If I have any Swarf that won’t go up the tube I have bigger issues.
I was going to install the Fumoto valve I got, but held off as once it’s installed there is another 1/8” of its threads sticking into the oil drain plug, so potentially that much more oil doesn’t get out. Probably doesn’t matter. This is 2nd oil change w/ filter, w/ 1st @1500 miles. Did 5 tire rotation & that’s decent workout w/ 275/60R20 tires.

Sorry. I was just referencing the page where I bought something.. now it’s broken for me too. I think (pretty sure) it was for the oil filter wrench, nicest one I’ve ever had..

Oil filter wrench link is not working, any chance of a picture? Sure do like the looks of the other two items!!

And that oil pump looks far nicer than my bowling ball version, interchangeable intake hoses/diameters should be a requirement for extractors

This should be easy to find. They also make a funnel like the one I posted, but were sold out when I bought this stuff.
