Do you guys siphon the oil out or let it out from the drain plug???
Do you flush first and still make sure the engine is hot when doing the change so the oil is more runny? A long time since I did an oil change. Also you change filter EVERY time?

I always drain as any sludge is at the bottom and I can inspect the drain plug should there be anything metal on it - never is thankfully
Have the engine warm, but not overly hot.
Never bother flushing as I'm changing oil frequently
Always a new filter. Why dirty the new oil?

Millers was always my first choice but now we stock Morris of Shrewsbury, age old company & English!
Check Morris' website for the oil they suggest, normally they'll give you a choice.
By the way, Millers have increased their price dramatically, Morris are far cheaper.
As the guy said eRlier, 'ask 10 people & you'll get 10 different answers' how true.
