Engine Oil Drain Valve

Has anyone tried the Fumoto Engine Oil Drain Valve? Does anyone have any input on this or these types of valves? I'm getting tired of unscrewing the oil drain bolt. I think this would be an easier way for me to change the oil in my expy.

I've been using Fumoto valves in all my vehicles for over 15 years.
A great product.
Buy it,use it and you'll always use them in the future.

I too have been using the FoMoto valve in all my vehicals for years and years. They work very well, are totally reliable and relivily cheap.

Also of note, Fram came out with their version of a drain valve about this time last year . . . it's being sold through walmart among other retailers.

Engine Oil Drain Valve

Don't know the brand but I got a brass and steel drain valve from Performance Products in CA and since installing it, I haven't spilled a drop of oil or gotten my hands oily during oil changes. It speeds up the change, and allows you to direct the direction of the oil flow to your advantage away from suspension or frame members. Go for it. A good investment. Safe offroad in all kinds of speeds and conditions as it's in a protected positon on 5.4L.
