What can be used to extract excess engine oil?

[MacCarson]

Excess engine oil can be extracted using a long straw paired with a shampoo pump nozzle. The specific method is as follows: 1. Purchase a flexible tube longer than the engine oil dipstick and insert it into the dipstick hole when the engine is cold. 2. Attach the shampoo pump nozzle to a water bottle and press the nozzle to pump out the excess oil. 3. After extracting an appropriate amount, use the dipstick to check the oil level again. Additional information about changing engine oil: 1. When changing engine oil, traditional gravity draining is more reliable than oil extraction, as many vehicle models cannot be fully drained via extraction, especially those with oil filters located in the lower part of the engine. 2. Such models often use the gravity draining method to replace both the engine oil and oil filter, as removing the engine guard plate would still be necessary to change the oil filter even if extraction is used.
