Changing the oil in my york...

[Forrest]

I guess this is probably a stupid question. Do I jsut drain the oil that's in it out of the hole I'd fill it? Or is there a better way.. I guess the manuals with it dont really say.

Is it all come out easy? Just picked up some 30 weight non detergent castrol that I wanna throw in before I take it down for the install sunday.

Yep, drain it out the hole you pour the oil into. Just make sure to do this before you install it on the truck. If you have a hard time draining 100% of the stock oil, just get all you can out, and fill the rest with 30wt. In a couple months of use, most of the stock oil will be gone.

whats the best way to fill it once its installed . I seem to make a mess . and the dip stick is hard to tell if its making it to the bottom of the sump. Whats the best way. And whats the best way to read the dip stick.

best way I found at filling your york is buying a 2 cycle mix injector at walmart, you can find it where they have the gas containers in the auto section. it pretty good since it already has mesurments for up to 2 oz.

oh I forgot just trim one side of the rubber hose it comes with and it fits nice and snug.

werd, I bought a big syringe in the cooking department from walmart. It also holds about 2oz. The oil should go about 1.5" up the dipstick when its full. Make sure the key on the shaft of the compressor is at 12o'clock.

Just about to do it now.. just wanted to double check. 12 oz's would be how much I want in their right.
