I use one of those on my Jetski. It's a Honda with a 4-stroke fuel injected 1300 cc 4-cylinder. Has a dry sump. Have to suck the oil from the oil fill and then a special port on the rear of the engine.

You can also use that to fill your transmission and differential.

Do you suck the tank dry before or after you remove the oil filter?

My filter sits remotely so I can do in either order.
