Me neither!
But if your "friend" ever does - here's a thing that works for my friend.
I have two plastic syringes from Malwart, I think. One is clunky and jerky and messy to operate. Piston/plunger bit works lousy.
This one works good - very smooth - it is for inoculating pigeons or roast beef or something. Pointy on the end.
Onto this syringe I pushed a tube from a Windex bottle (about ANY spray bottle tube will work).
This length tube was the correct length to reach the fresh oil in both a slightly over-filled Kymco and a Piaggio - my friend said.
TWO important things to remember:
1) Do NOT drop that tube inside your engine - you're on your own after that!
b) Don't put that tube back on your wife's full Windex bottle.
("My friend.... " brings to mind a funny story:
In the spring of 1967 I thumbed to San Francisco from Los Angeles to see what all the fuss was about. A kid from LA joined me. He was both immensely lazy and terrifically allergic to poison ivy.
He contracted a wicked dose of poison ivy when we were sleeping rough around Big Sur.
When we got to Frisco some street folks told me about a Free Clinic across town, where he could get some calamine lotion.
He was too damlazy to walk across town, so I went. I went up to the desk at the nurses station and explained the situation about "my friend".
Well the harried Nurse only heard "dose" and "my friend", and pointed me to one of several benches to wait for the Doc.
Finally I was called into the treatment room - where the Doc asked about "oozing, and blistering, etc.?"
'Yep' - then told me to drop my Levis and and bend over.
Yeah, I'd been sitting on the VD bench!
Well, we all had a big laugh, and I got my free bottle of calamine lotion.
BTW - lazybones wimped out, called his mom and got a bus back to LA. I found lodging & work cooking for a pro Chess hustler on Haight St. that summer. Who knew you could make $ playing Chess?
Good times. Interesting neighbors.
