If anything the oil would pour out faster.

I don't remember, it's been probably 10 years since I purchased it. I actually got 2 of those. And this one as well - it's "low profile", perfect for 911s:

I too have experienced a gushing condition when removing the drain plug w/ some spitting and spillage.

Just wondering if air flow from the top down would alleviate the gushing/gulping/spitting of initial oil as it drains.

Thoughts ?

I remove the oil filter and the oil filler cap.
