   It did a great job of getting 10 quarts (12 capacity) out of my transmission.   
   It will be interesting to see how it does with the oil, since it will have to   
   go through where the oil cap is located.  It has a measurement on how much it   
   evacuates.  I'll let you know when it's time to change the oil.    
   I got the manual pump kind.   
      
   Yes, I'll still have to lay on the ground to get that oil filter.  They always   
   put them in the worst places.  The one on the Durango isn't too bad.  At least   
   it is really easy to reach.  I have had cars that the oil filter was between   
   the firewall and the back of the motor behind everything.  Good thing I have   
   long arms..
