I changed at 77505km, Hussein requested me to change at 90,000km. Will continue to monitor, drain out oil and see the colour after 90,000km

If it's black and dirty, it means the engine oil's been good in cleaning the deposits in the engine.
If the oil is still clean or just a little brownish, it means it has not been doing its job.

Yes, we indeed use air gun to flush the OLD/PREVIOUS engine oil out and make sure that the last drop is out of the engine. This step is good as it force all the waste from the engine to come out. For example as u know that engine wear and tear.. metal particles will surely be 'swimming' in the engine. Hence if u change oil but did not perform this step, some of the matal particles will still stay in ur engine.. so wat is the diff?
Come to our workshop at 48 Toh Guan Rd East, #01-111, Enterprise Hub todae and try out stuff!! Hope to see you soon.
Regards,
Bilancia

from my understanding, its the other way around.
if its black and dirty, probably your grade of oil is too low or the oil has been used for too long.

Hhmmm.... I am sure the information from a Dutch oil giant like Shell cannot be wrong.
But I just can't seem to find this info in their website now.
