It is a cheap one but it worked. Some of the better ones can also pump fluid out too. Might upgrade later.

We also have always used 50w racing oil for the boat. That tiny tube takes a while.

Let it idle for 10-20 seconds

It’s changed when out of the water. That’s usually when I can’t run it.

I'd have to get at least the 10.5 L one since my truck takes about 8 L of oil and at that point might as well get the 15L one for a little bit more

Suspension comes in Tuesday
Really need to catch up on maintenance on this thing. Hard balancing that and hobbies and house shit.

I'm tempted to try one of the oil straw sucker things.

Installed Bilstein/OME lift, changed out a busted CV, have another one to do once the replacement comes in (i fucked the threads banging on it without the nut on it).
Also bought a new grill since i fucked the clips up, and tie rods. Next is rock sliders (so the wife can actually get in without jumping), UCAs, panhard correction kit, and maybe some new headlights.

Not a fan of the grille. Looks like it blocks a lot of air flow too.
I don't like any of the grilles that are giant words.

Do you put something on the headlights after? They just look so much better. Changes how the whole car looks. Good job.

I recommend clear bra over that fresh finish. Will last for years to come.
