Great idea

Postby CJ » Thu Jun 22, 2006 4:40 pm

Check out the oil drain valves on http://www.fumotovalve.com/, I'll defo be getting one for the Rex (oil change every 4k kms :roll: ) to make life easier, I don't know if they would suit the oil pan on a lowered FTO though, I'd be a bit concerned that a rock or similar woul knock the valve off the pan, that said, I suppose it could happen on any car.

Its refereshing to see a simple little product that makes life that bit easier.

Certainly looks like a great idea, and idea which one would fit the FTO?

Got one of these last week (the F106), total cost was just under €23. Went on no problem,

It doesnt stick down much at all (see pic), it points more to the back than the ground, so there shouldn't be a problem with a lowered fto (mine isn't). The little lever is on the opposite side to the picture.

...roll on the next oil change!!!

Good man JD, I've yet to install mine in the FTO but I did throw one onto the RX-7 and I gotta say it beats fishing around in a bucket of oil for a sump plug!
