Is it better to drain ur crankcase or do u really not have to. then after i do drain all of them do i just put oil back in the oil tank.

pull both drain plugs, let it all drain out, replace filter, put drain plugs back and fill tank wit oil (forget how many quarts. I think 2 1/2.) start it and let it idle for about 3-4 minutes and shut it off and check oil. put more in as needed till you get to the right level.

i really hope the 'back into the oil tank' was a typo,cuz no way no how do ya wanna reuse your oil. makes draining it kinda of pointless dont it?
