Hi, I bought the larger of the two vac pumps from you guys and some replacement oil too.
The oil the pump came with has a light brown tint, whereas the replacement oil is clear.
Do I need to drain the remnants of the old brown oil before adding the new clear oil?
I'm assuming I don't need to and can just top it up.
Want to be sure before I do anything. Thanks.

If you are replacing dirty oil, then drain it fully. If you are just topping up oil loss then fine to just top it up.
