What a neat little invention: http://www.fumotovalve.com

 

No more getting covered in oil (well, ok, it's not that bad, I know) and no more buying sump plug gaskets..

 

Very tempted to get one of those..

 

(Apgologies if it's been posted before - I did try a search on 'fumoto' and 'fumoto*' etc)

Are you gonna order 1 matey as I am deffo interested as well, will make life so much easier and probably mean I would change me oil more often !!!

 

If you find out the right size that we need and are ordering then I will have 1 too.

 

 

Olly.

do they do one for the oil filter too lol

I'm not sure yet - I would like one.. but I'm also penniless, which is a slight problem :rofl:

 

FYI though, the right size seems to be the F103, or F103N if you want it with a 'nipple' (fnar fnar) for attaching a bit of hose to.

I reserve judgement.

 

I would like to see how easy it is to unlock the valve. Like is it possible that road debris could hit it and unlock it?

I think i'll stick to removing and replacing the sump bung as usual

well your still going to get covered in oil taking the oil filter off

hehehehe :D

 

just what i was thinking

You'd struggle with one of those on a Z - the sump plug is low enough as it is, never mind protuding further down - helloooo speed bumps, bye bye oil :D;)
