I have heard of a process for suctioning out the crankcase in an H2. Does anyone know of the specifics of this procedure?

I haven't done it myself but from what I understand, you move the piston up so you can see the bottom of the skirt thru the intake and use a turkey baster ( or an actual oil suction device ) with a small tube to suck up the oil/fluid.

As you are moving the crankshaft, do NOT force it since if there is fluid there, you may bend something.
