hey, send me some deservicing straws.
WTF is a deservicing straw?
BLUF: Plastic tube
Aviation oil sample kits come with glass bottles, a padded envelope and a 3 foot long plastic tube to take the sample like a 5 year old playing with his drink in a restaurant. Suck the oil in the tube, deposit it in the bottle.
We don't use them anymore because everywhere that we take a sample from has a quick release sample port. They are useful for making your boroscope line rigid. We use them all the time to route a boroscope into an area where you need to push a rope so to speak.
