Remove oil cooler unless you can disconnect the hoses and have plenty to play with.

One end will be held high, with oil poured into it. Use a funnel.

Other end will go into a drain pan. Use an open one like you'd use for an oil change so you can see when the fresh oil is starting to flow through.

I have the GTM oil cooler as well, just detach the lines and drain. Unless you have it mounted upside down.
