Improved Oil Change for 2016 Craz 400 Raptor Engine

OP,

Glad you figured this out, the raptor drain hose is awesome combined with the extractor pump.

Warm oil is key and using just gravity method is far too slow.

Funny, the Mother of invention & all. After having just experienced what has to be a 1 in a million chance of having a fitting bust, I had to devise a way to drain the oil cold since I couldn't take the boat out. Oh, AND the water that somehow managed to find its way into the one hole where the aforementioned fitting once lived. I tried all sorts of things including the drill pump & trying to blow it out with air compressor. I even made an attachment to fit a ShopVac hose, to try & suck it out. Yeah, that resulted in a gigantic mess. Finally, I, too, found that the hand siphon pump tube does indeed fit into the drain line perfectly & after a couple of hours of pumping finally came out on top!
