ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for draining oil from a side-draining crankcase, the crankcase having an oil outlet, the crankcase being supported on a chassis defining edge portions distal from the oil outlet. The apparatus includes a flexible fluid conduit having a first end and a second end and forming a fluid passageway there between, the apparatus being defined by a length along an axis of fluid flow, which length is greater than a shortest distance from the oil outlet to an edge portion of the chassis nearest the oil outlet. The apparatus further includes a first coupling secured to the first end of the flexible fluid conduit and configured to be threadably and removably connectable to the oil outlet, a sealing element removably connectable to the second end of the flexible fluid conduit, and a securing mechanism configured to removably secure the second end of the apparatus proximate the first end of the apparatus.
