Well, I just cut a hole in the side of a new jug of Cat Litter, lay it
under the plug, take it out, and let it drain into the litter.You can
manouever the jug out after the plugs back in, with no oil spilled.

Sure you do, dumbass. And you recycle it where?

There are a couple left here who just want to stir things up, most of
us completely ignore them. If you see a "suspect" post, and it goes
unanswered, you can probably assume they are in a lot of killfiles

After reading his follow up posts ! Done.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better.

The king of Marigold was in the kitchen
Cooking breakfast for the queen
The queen was in the parlour
Playing piano for the children of the king.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

The king was in the garden
Picking flowers for a friend who came to play
The queen was in the playroom
Painting pictures for the childrens holiday.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

The duchess of Kircaldy always smiling
And arriving late for tea
The duke was having problems
With a message at the local bird and bee.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

At twelve o'clock a meeting round the table
For a seance in the dark
With voices out of nowhere
Put on specially by the children for a lark.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry cry cry cry baby
Make your mother sigh.

She's old enough to know better

I change fluids in several of my engine driven devices, etc. I have
a
vacume pump used for auto mechanics. Nice little device with tubes
and
catch jars that can get almost anywyere. You can probably get one at
the local autoparts hardware store. Mine is in a neat little carry
case, bout the size of a timing light case.
I have this one:

I'm hoping there's a cheaper, simpler alternative! That is cool
though.

Cheaper?? How much did you pay for the boat? Mine gets the most use if
I overfill something... Anyway, I did not notice the price when I
posted. I bought mine 20 years ago but some kind of suction pump
is handy in any garage, check wallmart for a cheaper version sometime,
great to have around even if you don't use it on your boat.

Maybe if brain-dead Herring would look at his engine, he'd realize that
gravity will drain out the oil and if attaches the right sized plastic
hose, it'll drain right into a container that can be taken to a place
that accepts oil for disposal.

Any competent boat salesman would have introduced a new customer to
someone in the shop who would have demonstrated the various
owner-maintenance features. But I guess if you buy a new engine off
ebay...

When I change the lower end oil on my mercruiser[s], I save the old
and put it in the lawnmowers crankcase. it's cheaper than buying more
oil for a lawnmower. besides. Briggs engines don't need no respect
anyhow...

We French use the old gear oil to brush our teeth.

I really doubt that. The would mean the French were into personal hygiene.

Get a lower unit oil pump. It screws on top of a quart jug and has a
hose that screws in the bottom plug hole. This is like the pump on a
bottle of hand soap. Then you just pump the oil in until it comes out
the top holes. That is a whole lot easier than trying to hold a bottle
up to the bottom hole, squeeze it, then get the top plugs in before it
comes "unsquoze". I always end up spilling as much as I squirt and you
never seem to be able to get more than 3/4 of it out of the bottle.
I use a real drain pan with a screw on cap (for draining) that is big
enough to catch all drips. They have them at any auto parts store.
Those stores will usually take back the used oil for recycling.

Thanks, I saw one of those pumps at West Marine, but didn't know if they'd
do the job or not. Might give one of those a shot.

I've been changing oil in other things for years, so the waste oil is not a
problem.

I would suggest using an old milk jug or if that seems too
complicated, just park the engine over a street drain and let it flow
into that.
Much less complicated than using an old milk container.
Some may think your opinion on this matter somewhat moronic.

Doh! Right over your head John. You do realize that Les Avis is Tom

You just can't resist ruining an ongoing gag can you.

Honest to pete.

I was looking forward to see where this went, damn it.

Me too. I was getting into this French stuff. Then someone posted something
(in French) about the truth being hard to find. In the particular case, it
was very appropriate.
