I have had a Fumoto valve on my 6.0 for years and love it. I checked the Fumoto site for a valve for my 2013 F-450 6.7 and the site does not list one.
Has anybody found one, or a Fumoto part number that will fit our oil pan. I would like to get one with the nipple on it to attach a hose and aim it down into my oil bucket instead of chasing the three foot long stream of oil when you pop the plug. Any help Guys?

 

I have one on my 2012. I believe F106N is the part number I have.

 

I ordered the Fumoto F-106N Engine Oil Drain Valve plus the drain hose. These trucks send out a stream of oil about three feet when you open the drain valve open and the hose allows you to direct it where you want it to go and not where gravity wants it to go. Great product. Check Amazon for a better deal.

 

Thanks for the replies, I used Fumoto site, entered Ford,2013 F-450, 6.7 and it said nothing listed. I knew that could not be right. I will be ordering one.

 

Just ordered a fumoto valve from qwikvalve. Ordered the new F316L valve. It has a swiveling 90 degree nipple so I can aim it down and put drain hose on it. No more chasing the draining oil!!

 

Ordered mine off of Amazon a few months ago. Looking forward to doing my first oil change with it soon. Ordered the valve with the straight nipple so that I can place a drain hose on it to direct the flow to a few empty oil jugs.

 

I've ordered this one too. I'm hoping that the nipple will stay turned upward. I think it will protrude below the oil pan when turned down for draining. A stump or rock could catch it and break the valve off. Just thinking in a precautionary fashion here, not being pessimistic. It will certainly make the oil change a lot cleaner.

 

Can these be used with the yellow 1/4 turn plug??

 

NO, they don't have one to replace the yellow plug at this time

 

The Fumoto valve for the 1/4 turn plugs was a standard Fumoto valve in a drilled and tapped Ford 1/4 turn plug.

I have one and don't use it. When new, mine leaked about a 2-3 foot circle of diesel on a brand new parking lot at a Hilton

I don't use it anymore. I found using a 5 gallon bucket and a 24" long 3/8" drive extension gives me all the control I need to get a clean oil drain. It's the filter I still make a mess with.

 

I just yesterday ordered an "EZ Drain" plug which is very similar to the Fumoto.
I saw it advertised and orderd before I was aware of Fumoto, but they are essentially the same.

They have a 90 degree adapter so oil can drain straight down. Adapter comes off so can't break on a rock. Will also take a 3/8 hose.

While I expect it will work great on the oil pan, I expect to still have the mess with the filter. Overall not a GREAT help, but any help is better than none.

 

I got the ezdrain one as well. Seems to be a good design. Got the adapter for the hose as well.


I am about due for a oil change and will put it in then.


I think it is a good design.

 

For you guys that are making messes with the filters...

I just make sure I can loosen the filter and then snug it back up. Then grab a hammer and awl and hammer a hole in the center bottom of the filter and drain it into the pan. After a few minutes I poke a hole up near the top to allow it to finish draining. Has always been a clean way of doing filters for me. Just MAKE SURE YOU CAN REMOVE THE FILTER BEFORE POKING ANY HOLES IN IT! I learned that the hard way.

 

Poking the hole - you need to make sure you far enough for the most benefit. Just piercing the outer can is not enough.

 

What do you mean? I'm not trying to drain every last drop, just not have the filter look like I dipped it in used oil. It has always worked for me. Maybe I just don't understand what you are saying.
