 Changing your EU2000i oil has never been easier or cleaner IF YOUR GENERATOR HAS BEEN RUNNING - TURN IT OFF -  LET IT COOL FOR 30 MINUTES - HOT OIL CAN BURN - SECURE THE GAS CAP - TURN THE VENT LEVER OFF I have included a copy of the page from the Honda EU2000i owners manual that includes oil change instructions, drawings and oil capacitiy (converted to US ounces) if you have lost or misplaced your manual. Remove the side cover, a US Quarter coin works great!  Remove the Dipstick Screw the OIL CHANGR into the dipstick threads finger tight, the O-Ring seal will not leak. Slowly tilt the generator, to empty the oil into a container or drain pan, Once the generator is empty, you can tilt it the opposite direction, and use the OIL CHANGR  as a funnel. DO NOT OVERFILL YOUR GENERATOR....MOST OIL CONTAINERS ARE MARKED ON OUNCES ON THE SIDE......Make sure you know how much oil your unit takes. Overfilling can damage the unit. HONDA LISTS THIS CAPACITY AS 0.42 US QUART IN THE OWNERS MANUAL - THIS CONVERTS TO 13.5 US OUNCES The oil capacity of an EU2000i is 13.5 ounces (just a little less than 1/2 quart) The Oil capacity of an EU1000i is 8 ounces, (you get 4 oil changes to a quart!) Once the  proper amout of oil have been installed, remove the OIL CHANGR and screw the dipstick back in. You may need a paper towel to clean up a drop or two of oil once the tool is removed and to clean the tool itself, or you can use whatever you normally use to clean up the funnel that you would have used. The OIL CHANGER will STORE inside of an EU2000i as can be seen in the photos. Storing it with the THREADED END UP will eliminate any rattles. I don't know what a shop charges to change oil on one of these small units. I do know that we went 15 days without power after hurricane Wilma. My generator ran 12 to 16 hours a day and I would change oil every 4 days. I could have gone longer between oil changes but a quart of oil is $3.29 (two oil changes)  and my Honda generator cost well over $1000. Maximum actual oil change and cleanup time was 10 minutes. I'll have try to have something up on Youtube in a week, so you can see how easy and fast this really is. I'm offering the OIL CHANGR for $14.95 with FREE SHIPPING to All 50 states. Not a bad price considering that it's hand machined from Solid Aluminum, and it will make the job of changing your oil easier and cleaner. Please store it inside the generator compartment and make sure you don't "lend" to your friends or family because you might not get it back.   PLEASE RECYCLE USED MOTOR OIL * One pint of used motor oil, improperly disposed, can create a one-acre slick on the surface of a body of water and kill floating aquatic organisms. * One oil change, improperly disposed and not recycled, can contaminate one million gallons of fresh water; equivalent to a year’s supply of water for 50 people. * Roughly 75 percent of used motor oil is used in industrial and utility boilers, steel mills and other facilities as well as a heat resource for making asphalt. * It takes approximately two gallons of recycled oil to generate enough electricity to run an average household for a day, cook 36 meals in a microwave, blow-dry your hair 216 times, vacuum your house for 15 months or run your TV for 180 hours. * According to a 2005 study, approximately 80 percent of the used oil generated by do-it-yourself activities ends up being disposed of in an improper manner. * Of course the generator is not included with this auction. Auction is for 1 unit.
