    run the motor till the oil temp comes up a bit then it will drain much easier

    Usually takes quite a while for it all to run out of a hose like that..patience, just put the oil in the mrning before you leave and don't forget to replace cap on the hose.

    you can pump it out with a drill motor. i always change my oil after a day on the water, it drains out of the hose much easier.

    I've seen others use a vacumm devise and pull it out right through the dipstick...wouldn't reccomend tho, to much old oil left.

    Your oil will never get hot enough by running the motor in the driveway...plus ya want it all mixed up so as any debre is suspended in the oil.
    I change mine after a day out on the water...as soon as it gets on the trailer...it all comes out with the remote drain hose in a few short minutes.
    And that hot straight 40Wt.
