Which model EZ Oil Drain do I need.

Last year I followed a link from this forum and purchased one (EZ -103).

Today I changed oil and dang it...EZ-103 is too small. Wasted money.

Has anyone the answer? That has same?

Thanks,

Mike

 

I prefer FUMOTO brand. I could not find a clear listing from EZ.

I was about to make the same thread.
Had one on my last truck and loved it.
I lreced FUMOTO also

 

You need EZ-106 or Fumoto F-106

 

As above the part numbers are the same. 106. The 90 degree adapter is helpful to drain directly into empty gallons jugs with a short piece of clear tubing. The EZ is slightly superior to the Fumoto due to it's gasket type and rubber coated turn handle. Both are a great way to change oil though. I've had them on every vehicle I've owned for years. Amazon has both at the best prices last time I checked.

 

Just received this one. Will Install Next Oil Change

 

Have the F106 waiting to be installed on my next oil change.

 

Don't forget the Shop-Vac trick when installing the valve.

Makes life easy and a lot less messy.

 

 

Yes it is.

 

What is the shop-vac trick?

 

If you don't want to wait until your next oil change to swap in the valve, you tape the end of your shop vac hose to your dipstick tube and turn it on. The suction will allow you to pull the drain plug and install the valve without loosing any oil... Personally, I'd just wait until the next oil change though.

 

My luck would be, I'd have the vacuum running, the drain bolt out, and someone coming out to the garage would turn the vacuum off so I could hear them.

 

Right.

Not the dipstick tube though, the oil fill tube. It doesn't have to be airtight or anything.

Even if you are just changing the oil and you don't use the valve, this method allows you to:
Turn the vac on
remove drain plug
position drain pan
turn vac off

Oil will drain w/o making a huge mess.

When the oil drains out I just installed the valve. Going forward, I slip on a piece of clear tubing, open the valve, and done. No need for the vac again.

 

This has been my choice since 2000 (3 vehicles ago) ........
