With the volume markings on the side of the extractor I’m satisfied that I’m get the same volume as if I had used the drain plug. All so I should mention that the tubes that came with the extractor are made from a very stiff material and can be easily push deep into the oil pan.

Do you need to cut the tube at an angle to suck the bottom of the pan?
Any other trucks for this? What pump do you use?
I’ve always thought this may be a nicer way to change oil, but I’ve never taken the plunge past a fumoto valve.
