4. Quickly move the pan over making an even bigger mess.

6. Pull the funnel and back off of the ramps so the car is level. Watch as a lot of your expensive oil drains onto the garage floor making still more mess. Replace fill plug.

20,000 miles later update... Way less rattle when I switched. Been running BG sense removing the AMSoil. I just dropped the transmission to change the clutch. All the shafts in the transmission are tight as a drum except the inner output shaft but I understand it is supposed to have some play. The TOB was fine too... Either way the tranny is much quieter on BG than AMSoil and I'm very happy with the shift quality.

I know there are a lot of fans out there, I just wanted to offer an alternative opnion.
