Installed this valve the very first time I changed my oil. It makes it so easy. And when I buy new oil filters the guys at the auto shop give me wild looks when I tell them I don't need the crush washer. :D

I had one, still have it in my bag and it's been terrific. The tubing and valve combo eliminated splash, spill, shoving my hand up there, etc.

The bad news is that it was just a smidge too low and I tweaked it off-road - I do have a skid plate but the bottom was pretty much in-line with the top of the plate so too close.

One oil pan later, I'm back with the bolt but only by necessity. I think I'll put a valve on my SO's cousin's Honda. The drain hole is horizontal on that one.
