ABSTRACT:
A process and apparatus for changing the oil in an engine and/or flushing and/or cleaning the moveable parts in the engine. The device includes an oil filter adapter adapted to be positioned in the oil filter boss, a remote oil filter mounting boss and inlet and outlet hoses connecting the two. The device is attached to the engine. Suitable pump-out and fill lines are connected to the device and can be releasably attached to an external pump device. When the device is employed to change oil, the external pump device is connected, and spent oil removed from the oil pan under suction force through the pump-out line. A measured amount of fresh oil is then introduced through pump-out line alone or through the pump-out line and the fill line and internal lube oil distribution system. Once accomplished, the external pump device can be uncoupled. When thorough cleaning is required, a suitable flushing fluid is introduced under pressure through the fill line and the internal oil distribution system after the spent oil is pumped out to scrub clean the internal passages and surfaces. The flushing fluid can be recirculated as desired to achieve thorough cleaning and, then, removed through the pump-out line.
