Oil change - not

[Slipperyeel]

On the Hex don`t you fill to just overflow, then quickly screw down before anymore gets out??

You are not alone!

Yea. That's what I've done. It's gonna be just fine

Well, Mr Eel, it's better than doing it the other way around (like some have done...) when you leave the sumpbolt out of the bottom and pour the oil in the top, wondering what the noise is.

Clearly I've underestimated what I'm capable of. This could be next

I'm frowning with a half smile.... emotions are concern and empathy in equal amounts.

Glad OP got to the bottom of it.

Forget the piss taking, atleast it made some laughter! Dont worry i think the older and busier you get the more this sh@#t happens!

..... and better than draining the oil and then refilling with oil without replacing the sump nut... I'm sure that's been done!

When I used to share a house with AEV, he did an oil change on his lovely Triumph and did exactly that. The neighbours (outside who’s house he dropped about three litres of oil) were less than amused.
