Just a large funnel with a long hose (3 - 4 foot long). Once you locate the oil cap, remove it then insert hose then hold the funnel upright outside the RV (mine is by the windsheild wipers and I have a metal hook to hold the funnel to wipers while its draining the hose and to hold steady for me).

Fill oil to correct level then when done you have to move the long hose up and down a few times to remove as much left over oil as you can, then use your finger to plug hose when you remove it to prevent messes, replace cap.

It will be a little messy the first time you do it but by the 2nd or 3rd time you will have the routine down.

I fill my oil by myself but it would be helpful to have a 2nd set of hands.

I guess there's just no convincing those who have things in their head otherwise So I'm done trying to establish the facts.
Like the saying goes....there's things in this universe you just can't fix.

Thanks for responding.
