Hi everyone, i have a question about when doing a oil and filters change. Does anyone have any tricks on reducing the mess when removing the oil filters??? I loosen and let as much oil drain as possible into tray, but always have oil run over starter motor, side of engine, front tailshaft and uni.
Just a big mess evertime. Any ideas please ?

There was someone who was making nifty little drain trays for them maybe try googling it as I cant remember who it was.
put a plastic shopping bag over it once you have loosened it and then unscrew every thing goes into bag no mess

I lay a big sheet of plastic down first, then into container, no mess no fuss
Or you could ask Growler, lmao

Yep I have a couple of the item the bloke made. Works a treat! Actually I might be interested in selling 1. I bought 2 but it does not fit the GUIV with the TD42Ti as some of the anti pollution stuff is in the way. But LOVE IT on the GQ

I took some pics as I fitted it up, I'll have to go see if I can find the pics.
Basically it's a custom made tray that bolts to the engine block using existing threaded holes and has a hose hanging off the bottom that drains to the bucket your using. Works a treat and Zero mess
