Just dont want it to be to thick not all will drain I do this with all my mech Items. cars,my kaw mule.tractor 72 inchzero turn mower make sure i get every bit of the old oil out!!! Just the way I have always done it. It seems to me that any junk in the oil is usually the last thing to drain!!!!

The only 'Junk' your procharger will produce is a bit of fine steel powder from the gears meshing. That gets stuck on the magnetic drain plug. Be sure to clean that and the rest doesn't matter.

Leave the plug out for about an hour.

I tried the rectangle funnel, but when i removed the plug the oil didn't drain straight out. It followed the body of the blower and went everywhere. After a few oil changes i'll get a Sucker like MarauderTJA and do it that way.
