You even beat me to your own comment!@Optimus🤖 has entered the chat room
I had the stahlbus prior to seeing the Fumoto option. It is specific to the Stahlbus. I just have it in my oil change kit. But yeah, it’s an extra piece you need to keep around. I don’t think you’d go wrong with either one.
Right o. If I do go that route, I'll get an extra. Just in case. I forget things. Like speed limits, no turn in red, etc. Lol
I didn’t understand half the stuff he was doing, trying to pull or suck or vacuum oil…maybe a long day in the sun at the beach i cant think straight anymore to appreciate the mastery.
My last two oil changes i got it down to no spills, so i’m gonna keep on doing what i’m doing my old fashion way.

Pulling a vacuum through the valve cover sucked air through the drain hole. That kept the oil from coming out the drain while he hooked up the line.
I do the same thing changing hydraulic filters on my tractor.
But did he also hook up some kind of suction line to the oil pan itself? I assumed to get it into some kind of onboard holding tank/disposal setup
Oh, that vacuum. Lol. Yeah, I'm betting it's to an oil pump and on board drum.

I've been doing the ziplock hack for a while, it works better though if you still puncture the bottom of the filter and let the majority of it drain out into the pan then when it slows use the ziplock back hack with the gallon bag. Fold the opening back on itself so it helps hold the bag open.

Impressive for a mobile service
I'm still dropping my truck at the Ford dealer-- is $65 for the 7.3G Oil change, they never charge me for the extra 3 quarts (8 qt Total w/Filter)

Maybe they only put in 5
LOL
LOF paperwork says 8 qts,
but then again I'm the kind of guy that expects the Dealership to be able to handle a simple LOF Correctly

It's those simple things I wouldn't trust a dealership doing, in today's world.
gotta love the $5k clean oil change
This stuff is made and sold by AGA Tools. Have some of their stuff. The vacuum regulator and remote for the Milwaukee vacuum. Works good. If you want to go all in it’s about $5k. Only thing they haven’t solved is the oil filter change. That part just sux ass. There has got to be a better way to drop the filter and not make a mess. I use oilcatch.ca. They are good but the filter is heavy with all the oil in it. Gotta be a better way.
I used to use a 5 gallon bucket. Thanks to this thread, I now use the baggie. Not one drop hits the floor.
