Is anyone using an EZ drain oil change valve? Is it the greatest thing since sliced bread? Any concerns with them? Helpful hints? I haven't done an oil change yet in my 2019, as I have had it less than a month, but I want to be prepared to make it easy on myself when the time comes?
Thanks!
 
I am going to get a NO SPILL SYSTEM low profile drain valves, already have the required drain hose. I have one of their reg. profile drain valves on a tractor and it works great!
 
My first thought when seeing it was, does it stick/hang down too far? Will it catch something and rip it off ?
But the pic above shows it doesn't hang down too much... Yeah, I'll have to look into getting one.
 
it doesn't stick down that much, plus, it's protected a bit by the axle. I've ran these on all my vehicles over the years, including farm vehicles that are all over pastures and feed lots and have never knocked one off.
 
After watching the Fumoto video, I still prefer the NO SPILL SYSTEM that I've been using.
It probably takes an extra 5 seconds to use it than the Fumoto system and just as clean.
But I feel more at ease knowing that an accidental dump of oil is less likely.
Small risk I guess - but I'll sleep better.
