I like it.

Get 2, one for the tranny drain.

This plus oil filter relocator equals ultimate laziness oil changes

Too bad it costs $23 per valve

i wouldn't use that. it takes me 2 minutes to use a 17mm and take out the plug. 2 minutes for peace of mind that all my oil doesn't drain out when i hit a bump.

-I'll second that; the reasurance that your oil didnt just drain out on the freeway @ 8000rpm after that half flattened beer case flew under your ride on the way to work is worth every extra second that it takes to do the job with a 17mm and a rag.

You Don't have to worry about your oil draining out, but I don't recommend it. TAKES FOR EVER for that oil to drain through that little hole and it is not a NO MESS affair. You sitll have to get to the filter to change that. I don't have one but My sister got one for her car. She thought it was a good idea but after the first time we changed her Oil Changing your oil is not a difficult thing to do in the first place.

now there was a system that I was thinking about that you would pump the oil out via the dip stick hole. Came with a filter relocation kit so you caould change your oil without going under the car.
