Theres a few ways.........

Hardest is if you follow my thread in the DIY section and pull the SC...

Easiest is if you buy the Part from Procharger to do the oil change ( basically a suction device with a long tube connected )......

You can also make it if you buy the clear tubing from a Home Depot ( Ill try to find the tubing dimensions ) and the suction device(syringe) from WALMART and DIY.....

Hey thanks Dawg, i just did a search and found a thread where you mentioned the suction device. I like that idea better and yeah...Ima make one myself, just need to get the tube size...that freak'n hole is so small. Thanks again.

1. Take your ATI syringe and get your scissors.

2. Take your scissors and cut the syring hose end in a sharp angle.

3. Put some oil on the end or outside the syringe to slip down into the supercharger easier.

4. Slip it in like having sex and push really hard and down.. You are now a glorified oil changing expert!!



Like that!

No prob lemme know if u need any more help..

I already answered this.. But another way (3 ways) is with a wrench....

All I did was remove the front belt to gain better access to the plug on the very bottom of the blower..

If you can get ur hands in there using an angled closed 5/8 wrench, I was able to get it done..

Use a plastic bag to catch the draining oil. Make sure you turn it right, as the bolt is upside down so dont accidently tighten the **** outta it like me

Thanx and I've went to pet store got small flexible tubing for fish tanks and syringe from Walmart...I think this gonna work also another small tube that can work is any spray bottle...the tube is small enough, hard but flexible to bend. Anyways, if all else fails, then I'll take off the belt.
