HPOP explosion!!!!
well i was changin out the oil and proceeded to do the hpop fluid change out and i did and boy was it filthy oil in there but thats beside the point so anyway i do that and refill it with that powerstroke oil by motorcraft (just tryin it out) then i fill the main oil deal and go inside to start it well it starts and the oil light is on and the oil gauge didnt move so i shut it down and got half way round the front of truck and 
oil was everywhere i mean everwhere i forgot to put that plug back in the hpop. so i think to myself well i really blew all that crap out now ha ha. but i filled it back up and cleaned the motor off so then a buddy of mine pulls up and says dang man you done detailed the motor and i have to admit it does look pretty good kinda oily but looks good ha ha. now the question no harm done right

Reps sent for you sharing your hard learned lesson. Some time back there was a thread were we were posting our "lessons/mistakes". It was pretty entertaining.

Wow, guys. There's another idea!
Someone make a fitting that temporarily replaces the fill plug to allow a hose to be run to a drain pan. Then, suck out the old oil using That Sucker, drain the sump, fill the HPOP, fill the sump, insert the fitting, and run the hose to the pan. Start motor for a few seconds (or quarts as the case may be).
Whaddia' think?
I'm just full of 'em! Or maybe just "it"....

I originally wrote it for tailgaters. But deleted it and changed it to fire starter to not seem like a road rage driver. Plus knowing my luck i would accidentally push it when i have the camper hooked up. And shoot my camper. Yeaouch.

I LOVE that idea!!! I think I'd actually want a separate tank for whatever fluid I wanted to use.... I mean.... people here in CO just LOVE to tailgate me!! Everytime I've had enough of it though, I've had my dog in the truck... so an emergency stop couldn't truly be done. This idea though... hmmmmm... cat urine with a little Diesel Kleen to corrode their windshield gasket? I'm gonna stop now....

I had someone on my tail yesterday on the freeway. Couldn't even see his headlights. All I had to do was to touch the brake pedal enough to turn on the brake lights, but not apply any braking pressure. That was all the moron needed and he floored it around me and started following the next car in line in the same manner. 10 feet off of the rear bumper.
