I would like to know what option is the best to get the most oil drained out of the car.

Problem: Replaced Intake Manifold and coolant mixed with the motor oil, currently forming nice milky solution.

1. Do you just let the car sit for a while and cool down then drain the oil?

2. Do you run the car till if gets hot then drain the oil immediately?

I am just trying to figure out how to maximize the amount of oil to drain out of the car since this will be something I need to do at least 2-3 more times.

TIA

drain it now and then re change the oil a few hundred miles latter. You should get most of it out and if not it will burn upon start up.


Just dont drive w the coolant in cause its terible as a lube.

any time the motor is opened up, I change the oil b4 start up and then about a hundred miles latter.
