sean c. · 09-14-08, 06:59 AM

Pretty cool. Give us a breakdown, schematic, whathaveyou!

Zwewe · 09-14-08, 07:04 AM

Do they have Kit #2 for the oil filter ???

Guillaume · 09-14-08, 08:33 AM

wow, that's pretty cool.

what size for the Z ? any adapter required ?

cavin · 09-14-08, 12:44 PM

Drain plug 12x1.5
Fumoto part F-109

I did not use the soft gasket that comes with the valve on my bike or cars....Get a NEW copper washer.

This is pretty neefty.
I will give it a try. Thanks

What would be the reason to get the one without the adaptor versus the one with the adaptor?

pghz1k · 09-15-08, 07:38 PM

Wow, pretty cool!

greencheezeeta · 09-16-08, 06:07 AM

Does it stick down below the exhaust header?

kicker · 09-16-08, 06:45 PM

talk about your all time usless invention

A. Not like it takes long to un do ONE bolt
B. that little hole you stick the tab in will get plugged with dirt
C. What if it fails.....HELLO

D. If you hit anything you dump your oil on the ground.

Jason 306 · 09-16-08, 07:33 PM

Yeah I'm sort of with kicker, I'll stick with the factory plug. Its a good idea though.

cavin · 09-19-08, 08:37 PM

I figured there would be one whiner in this post.....

A. The title was "tool free"; so stop being a tool yourself
B. Not sure what you mean here, obviously you don' know what you are talking about.

C. Google Fumoto.....HELLO how many reports of failure?
D. You hit something that substantial your aluminum oil pan will NOT survive.

Thanks for your input. An I look forward to more posts of yours
