Sid, that is cool. It's a scaled down version of the one in Rio De Janero.
What you don’t know is that Sid’s printer is much bigger than you think and it’s actually life size. :oops:

That's the real reason he has so many lights on his Ranger. It's really a mobile spotlight unit for his workshop.

I let the truck sit idle for two days to allow as much fluid to settle in the sump...8 quarts was extracted, including drippings from the old filter...

I thought the 'standard' PPE pan still had about 3/4ths of a quart more capacity than stock? But of course, you have the Fitzstick right? RIGHT?

That's what I heard...hence, the addition of Lubeguard...

That's exactly the amount I get out when I wait a couple of days. 7.5 qts pumped out through the Fitzstick and another 0.5 - 0.75 when I drop the pan and change the filter.

Good Job!

The hardest part was preventing spillage...so much can go wrong with this nasty fluid lol...fortunately, everything went quite well...

That's why I pump it out. Easier to control where it goes. I never thought about pumping it in. Just used Fitz's funnel. I do have two of those pumps. Different colors ...maybe use one to pump out and the other to pump in.
