Using an extractor for an oil change? Don't think so...

[89Suburban]

Unless you guys have any different experience please chime in because it looks like there is no way to extract oil out through the dipstick tube. I tried putting the suction tube down and it stops and doesn't make it to the oil sump. You guys think it is hitting the dipstick tube? Or the angle is so bad it's just hitting the driver's side of the pan?

Why would you want to do that? Regardless, I’m thinking your tube is hitting the windage tray. I believe the slot for the dipstick is small.

Just wanted to play with my new toy that’s all.
