I didn’t, I just accepted it took all morning!Found the secret of getting 4 litres of oil into a 9er in under 45 mins. Stand the oil in full sun inside glass patio doors all morning. Then stand it in a bucket and pour several kettles of boiling water in while dropping bikes oil and replacing the filter..et voila...warm oil pours through funnel and hose in under 5 mins.. obvious, but a revelation !!
I know.....everybody knew this bar Me!!
