The Fumoto was the one I was looking for, but he didn't have it in stock, so he asked me to try this one. The hose attachment just threads on to the plug and pushes up a valve inside letting the oil drain through the hose. It looks like it should work. Next oil change I will give her a try and take some pics.

Again... let us know how it works out.

From the Femco website... here is info and a picture.
When should you use a FEMCO COMPACT® drain plug system?
For equipment with limited space or when ground clearance may be a problem, FEMCO COMPACT SYSTEM provides a solution.
* Simply replace the factory fitted plug. No special tools needed.
* Remove the dustcap, which keeps the threads clean.
* Thread the drainer onto the drain plug to activate the system.
* Hot oil drains quickly and safely by GRAVITY or SUCTION.
* Remove the drainer, replace the dustcap.
* Full range of sizes and thread patterns: metric, UNF, UNC, UNS, BSP, BSW, NPT, etc. Custom sizes available.

Thanks for the info Beachbumcook. It looks like it could work fairly well. I am up for an oil change in a couple weeks, so I'll post some pics and info when done....dg

They come OEM on our Mustang loaders with Jap diesels engine...never had a problem with them or heard of any. only thing i dont like about them is takes forever to thread the hose on fully and even then only a little stream comes out...so if the oil isnt good and hot you could be there for days....

Thats where I knew I seen them before but couldn't pinpoint it. They were on several floor motors, pump motors etc, Series 60, for heavy equipment applications. Never heard of any problems with them.
