Racor actually sells a kit that is designed to polish your fuel with an
arrangement like this. IIRC, the pump is electric and runs for a period after
the engine shuts down, with the fuel pulled through the filter and delivered
back to the tank through a fuel return line.
Seems like overkill

I got the exact same engine and i use a drill pump attached to that
flexible bottom drain to extract the used oil after it has got to operating

Wasn't there a 43 named Esta Es (or something like that) on Lake Michigan? Or

When I did an upper end rebuild I dropped the oil pan on my 3 QM 30. I always
assumed there was oil left in the pan after pumping it out via dipstick. Maybe
a tablespoon left. I was impressed.

I looked a car with a VW Diesel engine and bought it because the engine is so
good. But it is not the same as the Pathfinder diesel. I have delivered and
worked on several boats with Pathfinders and developed a real dislike for them.
To the point where if I had a boat with one I’d be repowering
I will say that I think the plastic tube melted not because of the hot oil
but rather because of the hot exhaust manifold that ran nearby. On my
Yanmar there is no dipstick tube just a hole that goes directly into the
block... And no where near the exhaust. Never had a problem on that engine.
As I mentioned before (last year), I can relate to the oil suction tube melting
inside the dip stick tube (I have the t-shirt). Now I am using a metal tube (it
came with Pela pump) and waiting for the engine to cool off enough. The process
takes longer, but you can skip removing the dip stick
Thanks much

Hi
We used a variety of methods to pull the sample. Some engines required pulling
from the sump or oil pan, others we would pull the sample from the drain plug,
others we would stick a long tube down the filler tube and pump out the sample
with the hand pump. Samples pulled from the pan or
Best practice is to run the engine up to temp and then dip the sucker tube
to the middle of the sump.

Some airplanes have a magnetic oil drain plug with two electrical probes
connected to a light. When the light goes on that means enough metal got stuck
on there to complete the circuit and then you get to stare at the light until
you land ☹
Another thing we did with airplanes is cut the filters
Oil Testing
Does the oil sample need to be pulled from the very bottom of the sump to
capture the metals there?

Hi All,
In a previous life I had to do oil samples on heavy equipment and aircraft
engines (both piston and turbine). Some of these pieces of equipment or
aircraft would run 24/7 so oil samples were taken weekly…(every 100 hours is a
common number for production equipment to be sampled)
