Car on. You can of course do: suck old fluid out, refill, start car, go lock to lock, turn car off, suck fluid out again... repeat 3-4 times.

This time, I'm just going to suck fluid out, refill, drive the car whenever I need to, repeat. That way, the fluid will really make its way around.

I was really really surprised how bad the fluid deteriorated. Looked and smelled completely different than the fresh Pentosin. The fluid is definitely cheap enough that I'll prob be doing it every other oil change at 10k now. Maybe overkill, but it's quick and cheap.
Thanks. But if you suck the old fluid out, refill, drive around and repeat...won't you possibly be taking out some of the new fluid each time?
