I'm sure some of you have this, but after browsing the parts section at WalMart, I cam across this. For $12.95 I never have to worry about spilling oil all over my hand again! It is a permanent plug replacemant with a valve. I will put it on for my next oil change.

Now you can have instant access to your oil with just a turn of the wrist!

 

i thought you liked lubing your hand up?



sorry!

 

naw...just my Johnson. Have you seen this thing before?

 

you might not get as much oil out. the hole is smaller than it would be with the OEM drain plug out. so technically, the drain hole will not be at the bottom of the pan. maybe if the car is inclined alittle, it will drain more completely.

still, cool idea..

 

Yeah, I thought of that. I'll post in about 2000 miles to let you know how it goes. And I am definitely going to use ramps. My hydraulic jack gouged the hell out of the lip on my car, so I am moving on to alternative methods.

 

nope i havent. i dont do my own change though. im wayyyyy too lazy.
