Is it necessary to clean the oil boy tubes and container? If so, how are you doing it?

FYI, just doing oil changes right now.

oil boy tubes? WTF are you talking about?

rp_guy

do you have one? i think he means the tempo oil boy, the oil sucker that was recommended here for a while. the tubes/lines go into the dipstick hole



and i think you should be able to just leave it, not like the oil will solidify, but if you're worried, just soak it in some dish soap.

Yep, the Tempo Oil Boy. (https://acurazine.com/forums/showpos...0&postcount=13)

Saw some posts about cleaning it with mineral oil but I didn't see the point of that. Guess I will just leave it dirty.

i don't clean it. i have length of 1" pvc pipe placed in a mobil one oil bottle. i place the tubes in it and the oil drains into the bottle. i just wipe the tubes as i pull it out to use.

We have one that we use to change the oil on our jet-ski. It doesn't need to be cleaned, unless you absolutely want to.

ah, I pay someone to change it so that's why I never heard of that device.
