If you look closely at the dip stick tube you will see that it will accept a standard gardenhose end. You will need to purchase a vacumn oil changer or use a pump. I purchased a metal can with a pump that will suck the oil out after you create a vacumn in the can. There are several types out there for $30 or so. Changing the oil is quite simple.
1. Warm the engine. You want to warm the oil so it is thinner and flows easier
2. Shut the engine down and remove the oil cap
3. Attach your vacumn can or pump to the oil dipstick making sure that you have a good seal
4. Release the vacumn or start the pump. The oil should begin to flow. Continue until you have as much oil as you can out of the engine.
5. Remove and replace the oil filter. Remember to lubricate the new oil filters gasket with a touch of new engine oil.
6. Add new oil that meets the manufacturers specs, BUT not all the oil. When you get to the last quart add a bit and check the level. You don't want to overfill the engine oil.
7. Once you have it full you will need to start the engine to fill the oil filter with oil. This usually drops the level by about 1/2 quart.
8. Check the oil after you have run the the engine letting it sit a couple minutes so the oil has a chance to flow back to the oil pan. Remember, the oil level doesn't have to be to the full mark, just in the "safe" range on the dipstick. If it is, your done, otherwise add enough new oil to bring the level into the "safe" zone on the dipstick.
A another thing I like to do. I write the engine hours on the oil filter with a sharpy so there is no mistake as to when I last changed the oil.
