This is my second time to use the extraction method (both times on this car.) the first time was trouble free. This time it seemed very difficult to get all of the oil out. Finally I got all that I could, only put 4qt back in it and it seems well over full.
I have an oil extractor I purchased from harbor freight. It seems to work find except that I'm not seeing any oil in the stand pipe outside the tank to tell exactly how much came out, but the internal level came up. I suspect there is just some debris in the stand pipe filler.
My question, how far should I have to insert the probe to be able to get all the oil? I can insert it considerably farther than the dipstick goes but apparently for whatever reason that doesn't work.
Thanks
