I would be cautious about putting plastic tubing down either the oil fill or dipstick tubes (on cars with them) as there are a lot of sharp edged things the tube can get hooked on and make it nearly impossible to pull it back out. We have had to take a couple sump covers off cars whose owners tried to use commenrical vacuum tank systems to suck the oil out without jacking the car up. Bad idea..........
