Oil changes
I'll be changing the oil in my 3208 in the near future. I'm thinking
that the oil pan I use on my other vehicles is probably not large enough to capture the full amount of oil in the 3208. How do other people deal with this problem? Have a second container ready to push in place, reinstall the plug and start over, or buy a larger container? Ideas? Kerry 82 FC 35 Denver |

5 gallon bucket works good.

Kerry,
Buy a large pan. I went overkill on my drain system...I bought a rectangle 9 gal. tank, added a 4" inspection fitting/cover, added a drain spicket, mounted it on a low profile frame/wheel cart. I remove the cover, roll the unit under the drain plug, remove the drain plug, replace the drain plug and tank cover after the oil has drained, roll the unit out from under the bus...no mess. Fill the engine as needed. Set the tank up on my bench. Open the spicket and refill the gallon oil jugs...again, no mess. Like I said, OVERKILL...works great.
