As I stated above we change oil in two Tiger Cats frequently. IF you will take a 20 oz bottle and cut it off to about 2" or how ever short it needs to be to slip under the lip that sticks out under the filter, then loosen the filter and allow it to drain, then remover the filter, you can then wipe the small amount off the lip with a towel. Then remover the cut off bottle with the oil in it.
IF you do that you will not have a mess to clean up.
