Great scotty will buy one
That's soo convenient Scotty
Make a video on diy changing control arm bushes
I miss the intro scooty bring it back :(
Very neat!!!
If I bought this tool, I'd miss fishing the drain plug out of the pan full of dirty oil by hand.
lol
Ha! I get so mad every time..
Hot oil too, lol. I’ve learned to use a bunch of paper towels while I’m unthreading it so I’m not afraid of letting go once the hot oil pours out.
I also love getting oiled up and dirty
😆
I can't believe that Scotty paid $35 for this tool......that's more than he paid for the last Toyota he is driving.
@steve pitman I have one that's 20years old and still runs like brand new. Probably the best car I've ever owned.
:))
@@howieloso !?@
It's $45 today (March 23, 2020)
I used to have a Citroën SM. Its oil drain plug was so large that it used a 17mm hex key, same as a Volkswagen Beetle’s transaxle plug. The threads were like 25mm. The oil dumped in only a few seconds.
The Citroën transaxle was the same design as on DS/ID cars so it had more normal drain and fill plugs like 21mm hex head, 14mm threads.
Scotty is definitely one of the most intellectual TH-cam mechanics, and I value his opinions and knowledge, and I am definitely looking into one of these oil drain valves
This system is very flawed.
The valve reduces the flow, which prevents all particulates from being pulled out of the oil pan with the oil.
As Scotty gets wiser, his hairline moves back to make room for his growing brain.
😆😅🤣
@James Kline you give it a few more weeks, you'll start reading minds.
Lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣
At this rate he’ll look like megaMind😅
It will also prevent the wind from blowing a stream of oil all over the dang place.
Always happens to me :-( splish splash like syrup being trickled onto toast except the syrup is oil and the toast is my driveway :-(
Ah you too suffer from.....windy stream
i cut a 2 inch piece of pvc pipe measured to fit between my fumoto valve and drain pan. the windy day made quite a mess of oil changes before the pvc pipe.
I love this oil plug, so smart!
Can't wait for new Bluetooth version
Wifi included baby
The Wifi - compatible one is considered the best....
Just make sure your phone has 5g compatibly...
for BEST RESULTS!
I want mine in 4K HD
😄
I can't wait for the one that changes the oil itself.
These types of drains have been used on aircraft for years. I didn’t know one was available for my vehicles. This looks like a high quality one with more than one way to seal. I’m going to get mine on order today. Thanks Scotty
Did u get it n how well did it do?
@@sumanghosh-pb3dw works great. I no longer spill any oil. Also my hands stay oil free. They are very good quality. I installed one on on my wife’s car too.
I’ve been thinking about these lately. My friend has one with spring valve. I wasn’t sold on it and wondered if there was something better. You definitely looked this one over and pointed out some good points. Thanks for the product review.
Removing the oil filter makes a bigger mess than removing the drain plug.
Cause you dont know what you are doing.
Use a plastic bag over it and twist it off
I certainly dont, whats the trick?
The trick is get a car with the oil filter mounted on the top or the engine! lol. Like a Subaru or BMW or even some diesel trucks (Ford 6.0 for example, but I can't recommend the 6.0 bomb)
Not if you own a BMW. Oil filter at the top ZERO mess.
Modern car developers after watching this in their office:Hey what if we remove the hole for the oil so people can't change their oil.They will have to buy a new car every year(whole company applauses).
You joke, but there are plans to make oil changes done with a cartridge type system. No longer owner capable as you have to go to a dealer and it's hooked up to the cars computer so it has to be set and match as a oem part.
Their excuse is people using the wrong oil and causing too many warranty issues.
Spyros M. Or do like they did with the transmission. When you go do your first transmission service on these newer cars you have to take them to the dealer because there isn’t a hole to put it in. There isn’t even a dipstick to check the fluid.
It was in a article I read last year about upcoming tech.
Spyros M. Apple has already taken that model and ran with it 😂
Following Apple's model
I’m glad I found someone like Scotty that can help with any questions about mechanical work and this new product is going on all my cars!
Scotty I have watched you video's for quite some time, really appreciate the time you take to make sure everyone is in the know, plus your videos are super fun to watch thank you!
I've used the Fumoto valve for years without any problems but I'll keep this one in mind next time. Thx for showing me i have an option.
I looked at the Fumoto valve before I made the Valvo Max purchase. 2 things that made me go with Valvo Max.
1: Looked like the Fumoto was brass, I was worried that it would be susceptible to damage from road debris being soft metal.
2: I was concerned that the lever might lose a pin or break off.
Maybe not the case in actuality, but if I'm laying down $30, and traveling as much as I do. I don't take any chances. I also keep the original plug in the glovebox, wrench and 5 quarts of oil just in case.
Got a fumoto valve for my 2008 duramax best thing you can have on a diesel .
Same here, been using Fumoto since 2005 or 2006, on total of 4 cars (two of them I don't own anymore). When I first learned about Fumoto I found that they sold a simple clip you could put around the lever to prevent it from being knocked open by accident. I tried it without the clip, and found the valve never opened by itself. Of course I only drive on the road, never do any off roading. So I never bothered installing that little clip :)
I've had one for years...takes longer to.drain oil but no big deal
Same, and should I ever bring my car to the shop, they can change the oil as well with the fumoto valve. And somehow I am sure, that when I would use this valve, it would probably take me longer to find the that drainhose, than it would to remove the carter plug.
As a mechanic, I have seen many drain plug assemblies. This one is really cool and clean. Now we need a way to make the filter removal less messy. Good job Scotty, keep up the good work!
Ziploc 1 qt freezer bag! There's your anti-mess filter removal tool! /que horse laugh
A quick disconnect like on pneumatics would work. If you run with it, cut me in :D
Subaru filter on the top of the engine
You mean like a cartridge style oil filter? Or like Subaru with it on the top of the engine?
x2xtreme360
Subaru Outback (and other models I’m sure) has a top of the engine oil filter canister. Pop open the hood. To the right of the valve cover and next to the oil filler cap is the oil filter. Only issue is u cannot pre-fill the canister with fresh oil prior to installing like u can if the canister was screwed on from the bottom of the engine. Being top mounted it unscrews with no oil mess since all the oil that was in it has returned to the oil pan. I believe Porsche, BMW, and other cars have the same set up.
I drive nearly 1,000 miles (1,600km) each week. Bought this same brand based on Scotty's review. Easy to install, ensure that you torque the valve to manufacturer specs. I got tired of the original way...quickly! The plastic bag over the filter works out good also.
Edit: I also keep the original plug in the glovebox and a 15mm wrench, just in case the valve fails.
Hows it worked out for ya?
Ever have to use the original drain plug again?
Thinking of ordering 1.
@User User still have it installed, and works great
1k miles a week huh? You don't need the new drain plug, you need to move closer to your destination! :D
@@user-nh3gu1ge3d I'm an independent contractor delivering medical supplies for 3 VA hospitals.
Does this product fit a 2021 Subaru crosstrek?
Scotty, I am so happy to find your blog. My mechanic for 50 yrs retired and now I have to go to the dealer and I find it hard to trust anyone else. You are entertain plus great tips and info. Loved this product review. Might just have to go buy one. Honda wanted to charge me $49 for an oil change!!! Love my '08 Civic but some of Hondas new vehicles scare me. My wife's '18 FIT had a rock chip in the windshield and it cost $1600 to replace it when all was done because of the computer link to the mirrors through the video on the windshield. Should have kept her '08 Fit.
You mean an end to the gorilla that tightens the oil plug till it is half stripped, and no more hassle with trying to guess how far the oil will spurt when you pull it off finally, then it drips out and misses the pan. Count me in Scotty!
I did a oil cap delete for weight reduction.
delete the drain plug to reduce drag bro
Dan H haha
I bought the carbon fiber one........only 3 grand.
+Sahadi420 that's a steal dude
Take the gas cap off too and the radiator cap...hell why stop there, take all the windows and doors off too and the engine, transmission, wheels, tires, etc.
This product makes me think about changing my own oil again. Thanks for sharing the details, Scotty!
I put these on all 4 of my vehicles. The oil comes out a tad slower than before, but way way way less mess. And that saves time and effort. Great little invention.
....right here in HOUSTON TEXAS!!!!! who used to be in the AIR FORCE!!!!!!!
Bee Tee lmao
See my previous post.
yeeehawww
Now we just need a clean way to change oil filters.
yes lol omg
Before draining, make a little puncture hole on top of the oil filter, then drain, the oil filter will then drain out a little bit better 🚗🙂 i learned that Trick from changing oil on old Porsche 911s, the oil filter would make a nasty mess when u unscrew it if u didnt make a little pin hole on the top first so that air could get into the filter when u drain the oil from the engine, if ur really OCD let it drain overnite 😊
John Wilkerson exactly!!
On my f150 302 i can grab mine with a wrench and pull it out. With a pan underneath and its pretty neat. The newer cars dont have the big bay luxuries lol
Lisle oil wrench/pliers and a taller plastic coffee grounds container. The kind with the side grip. I let the filter drop into it while holding it over the filter and finger tip spin the filter off. Works perfectly. Otherwise remote filter your vehicle.
I've seen the old petcock valve ones before, but this is the first time I've seen this new version. I think I'm going to have to buy one and install it on my Jeep Grand Cherokee! It'll sure make changing my oil that much easier and a lot less messy! :)
You are a man of integrity and that the world cannot take away. Good job Scotty.
I didn't even know something as useful as this existed, but thanks to Scotty i now know about it!
Srsly? Oil drains have been around for 100 years, give or take, though in the early days they stuck out more with a turn valve more similar to a water valve.
Vehicle Viralls - My buddy an I installed one of these years ago. It was a really easy way to change the oil with no mess.
We had a Bronco and we bottomed-out on something. Soon after the engine blew up! The tap device was torn clean off.
Have you ever been to an auto zone fram has been making them for 25+years
@@guidoquigley9524 I have the Fram and it is less than $35.
Just happened onto your videos by chance a couple of days ago, and I was hooked! Great advice and easy, simple to understand instructions. Great work, sir!
This looks like a great invention! I love your videos and look forward to seeing more new ones!
I’m a lady& I change my own oil. Thank for showing me this item. I love it& am wanting to get one asap!! It’s amazing!!!❤️👍
Wow! That device looks very similar to what some of us used on the Oshkosh Mk.48 LVS, along with other vehicles & equipment. Back in my military days, (25 years ago) it had no official nomenclature and certainly wasn't a standard issue item. Apparently, it was acquired by some of the NCO Marines working in the motorpool who had close ties with the machinists. They were very proactive and constantly thinking of ways to improvise tools & methods to enhance performance of equipment, as well as workshop efficiency. There were a lot of Navy Achievement Medals earned back then!
i can do the drain plug no problem...its the filter where i make the mess
stickloaf luckily my filter is at the bottom and faces down...I just poke a hole with a screw driver and drain it before removal
That's a good idea never thought of that. Mine faces down also, it's not too messy. I just let it drop down in the pan, then wipe any oil from the frame.
I agree! Depending on the car, the placement of the filter really sucks when you have to remove it. Basically side-mounted and near the exhaust manifold makes it impossible to not make a mess. The drain plug is always at the bottom and easy to control
Same.
On my imp the filter is near the exhaust headers and that is where the mess comes from, normally a bit when unscrewing and the most when lowing the filter down, this is why I use a large rag to soak up all the oil.
I come up through the bottom and have someone hold a plastic grocery store bag by the handles. When I'm under the car, just grab and twist the filter through the bag till it's free and have the person let go of handles so I can pull filter and bag down to me. Whatever mess ends up in the bag. Did that make sense?
Wow Scotty this is amazing, i am deffanitly going to have to get one!!!!!!! You are my most trusted mechanic! Thanks again for another awesome video, cant wait for whats next!!!
I like your evaluation Scotty, that are straightforward ,honest and very informative.
I use a Fumoto oil drain plug and a piece of 3/8" air hose to drain my Super Duty and love it. No more socket wrench and getting hot oil on myself.
Awesome video Scotty! That drain plug replacement is pretty nifty. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and years of experience with us.
Great video Scotty! Keeps my driveway and the planet a lot cleaner! Thanks!
For those that are worried about threading their drain plug on correctly, here's a device with three sets of threads!
that is a good point,3 sets of threads to screw up.
This world needs more people like you! Thank you for inspiring me and everybody else.
Once again, Scotty never lets you down. You rock!
Totally enjoy your reviews. I just replaced the rack and pinion in my 2005 CVPI based on your how to. Many thanks.
I have gotten so much information from Scotty
Every video I see of him I’m so impressed
What he has to say is just fabulous information
I also have saved funds from his advice
Keep up the good work Scotty
You are a very good man Scotty keep it up with the work.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
👍
Only today did I realize I watch these videos while eating breakfast before work. That means Scotty wakes up hella early to upload videos
Matt Hudson Old people wake up at five automatically.
Or schedules it.
Does your BMW have a DIPSTICK?🤔😂😂🤣🤣
PLATINUM yes, it does actually. No dipstick for the transmission though. Gotta pull the fill plug out of the pan for that one.
Matt Hudson that sucks! 😂
This is what design is all about...Simple and effective, thus, ingenious. Just love products like this!
I have been changing my oil for 50 years, and wish all my cars and trucks had that thing.
Im not convinced. If you install this valve you are reducing the hole through ehich all the burnt and crude oil flows out, maybe even some metal filings too.
I still prefer the oil to wash out qyickly and powerfully, taking all the deposits and sludge with it
The best invention is the Scotty Kilmer channel!
I agree! He is so honest and knowledgeable that's for sure! I was able to do a spark plug job on my little Wave with no issues! :)
Ozzstar Looking for Leon?
I agree. Hes able to explain stuff so that even I understand... And I learn by doing
gaaaayyy!!!! lmao!
Ozz is bucking for the prize !
Fantastic product 👍
Brilliant channel for an honest mechanic.
Enjoyed Scotty's channel for
years now 💛
Love the videos Scotty- keep em coming!
That’s awesome drain plug should work well while traveling and I usually change my oil on the road
Thanks Scotty
Looks like a high quality valve. I've been running petcock drain valves for the last fourteen years on multiple vehicles without issue. I like the petcock design better because it doesn't require an extra piece to open the valve. I can see me losing the valve opener.
Greetings from Ireland. It just goes to show you, the best invention's are the simple one's
I'll take 2 !!
Great idea Scotty. I just changed my old plastic canister filter assembly that you recommended with a metal canister filter. By the way works great.
Love every you suggest. I use your TH-cam channel for all car repairs. Just want to say thank you, thank you and thank you.
Now you can change the oil on a windy day!
Made that mistake before eneded up wearing most the oil.
Its always Windy here, heehee 🤗
this is a clean non offensive comment
Brutuz62 i find this comment offensive XD
I'm ever so sorry and hope you will accept my humble appology
Reported.
Did you just assume my level of offense?
This is a red herring to divert attention from what the real issue is.
Love it, I’ll need to get me one of those!
I just installed an easy drain valve and glad I did. I never wanna deal with a service station or oil change station ever again in my life. They use to put that bolt on so tight that it would be impossible to take it off and change your own oil. Every car on the planet should have one of these easy drain valves changing your oil takes 5 mins it’s truly an incredible item I’m glad I found. Don’t neglect your car and it will always treat you good the first thing is religiously change your oil even if you use full synthetic oil every 3,000 to 4,000 miles. This makes makes changing your oil a snap.
Genius! As a former Air Force guy, I would expect nothing less from a fellow airman.
Gonna change my own oil for the first time, thanks for the inspiration Scotty!
I have one from a brand called Fumoto and let me tell you its amazing. They don't leak, no tool oil changes.
I even have one on my motorcycle (that revs to 15,000) RPM and doesnt leak not even a drop!
Best invention ever! Valvomatic! Thanks Scotty. I’m gonna miss my hot oil skin treatment
I have followed you for awhile and Learned lots of stuffs. Thank you!
That was pretty impressive, might be worth it to test it on a motorcycle. Maybe even think about having one mount to gas tanks so you can drain the tank for winter storage.
Wow, Scotty, that's a great product! Now inspired to Chang the oil myself! Thanks!
I do my own oil changes. I like that. I will buy one of those. Thank you.
I will buy a Tesla.
Scotty you are very informative and interesting in what you do! Thank you
This is awesome. Thanks Scotty
Thank you. Just installed 2 in my family cars. Their service was excellent. Not all cars are listed on their order page. Just email and they will provide the right part. A great product. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome video! I ordered one of these for a handicap friend and it has made her life so much easier.
That is good as far as it goes. Now, if the manufacturers would just place the filter in a location where you do not have to be a contortionist in order to remove and replace it.
Bullet Begone agree about the oil filter. We have one of the worst filter locations I've ever seen. 20011 Suzuki great victors is burried under the manifold and you can't even see it. No way to get it off from top or bottom and extremely difficult from the side. Not that easy to get back on either.
The manufacturers only make them to sell, they couldn't care less how hard it is for the buyer. I try to check all the things that I will be doing before buying a vehicle, but it is almost impossible to check everything. The biggest ripoffs in the world are in the auto parts and repair business.
I read these comments and laugh. 13 dodge dart. Oil filter right underneath. Practically in your face when you go under the car
charles blome try to remove one from a 12valve cummins Lol especially trying to get an oil wrench on it.
Jamie Hall I got a Nissan sentra got to lift it to change to oil filter but on the my Nissan juke it's so easy I dont even need to lift the car to do the oil or oil filter. I wish all cars had them facing down in a easy location like the juke.
I like how he gives advise on cars and gives away stuff it’s really cool
Great review, Scotty. I plan on getting a couple of these for my car and my wife's car because I live in an apartment complex and I've been looking for a cleaner, neater, and faster way to change my oil. Thanks for the review. Can I hope to find these at my local auto parts store or are they available online only?
REV YOUR ENGINE! I love these product reviews. Keep 'em coming!
Another fantastic product review by Scotty!
I've had a FRAM suredrain system for years which is pretty much thw same thing and it works great and leaves no mess however if it has been left for a while it can be hard to get the dust cap off so it might be an idea to file down two sides of it or something so you can get a tool onto it to grip it better, but i definitely recommend it if you dont want oil pissing everywhere during an oil change
That's what I was thinking. Fram was selling these 15 years ago.
Squirrel Meat pipe wrench will remove any bolt..rounded or not
Thank you for all the great tips!
Installed one on my V6 4Runner a few years ago and between the Sure Drain Valve and the OEM oil filter placement with drain tray, I can do a fluid/filter change pretty quickly and with no mess. The 6 grease fittings on the axle take some time, but that is typically every other oil change.
The ten minute video clips are packed with valuable information.
Hey scotty! I love your videos and always press the thumbs up! I never changed my oil by myself, but if i do win this, i will start doing it! Kudos to you man! Keep up the good work!
This oil drain product is what I have been looking for! Thank You Scotty!
That’s really cool. Need to get that. Thanks again for sharing the knowledge.
I can't believe Scotty has 1 mill subs .. I've been sub since he had under 100k
Norman Afif me too .
Norman Afif , same
Norman Afif ive been watching him for about 4 years now. LOADS of experience and education. And some great tips to be learned here
me too, how did it happen? 🤔😊
He deserves it!
awesome information, keep making these useful videos
Great recommendation. I'm getting one for all the cars.
This is the best oil changing tool I’ve seen yet
This is a great product , why didnt i think about this ? Thanks for letting me know about it
I've been looking at these things for years and this one looks like an easier design as long as the drain plug isn't facing down.
Love your show Scotty thank you for what you do
Scotty I would love to have one of them oil drain valves I watch you all the time,Big time fan...
GREAT IDEA!
GOOD TO SEE A LITTLE GUY SUCCEED WITH HIS IDEA INSTEAD OF SOME BIG CORPORATION!!!
Richard Stone - this isnt a new, in the Heavy Equipment world this type of system has been used for a very long time now. Its the way to go.
This kind of valve and cap system is called quick disconnect and comes from the aviation systems and it was used since long time ago for the hydraulic systems for example. The quick connect and disconnect valve and cap fixture is used for testing the hydraulic systems trough a ground pressure source. Net fixture now exported for the automotive industry
We used them in the Navy extensively on missile launcher hydraulics as well.
Omg friggin brilliant!! I love it!
Just changed my oil today , this is an awesome video showcasing the uses that has 👌🏼
That's an interesting idea. I wonder if it could be used in the situation where one has stripped the threads in the pan. Normal approach is a new pan, since the depth of the threads may not be enough for a Helicoil. Instead of replacing the pan, you could try to glue this into place with JB weld. If it works, you've saved the cost of a new pan, if it doesn't work you have to replace the pan anyway....
Yeah, or go Metric instead ( in case of a SAE thread), or SAE in case of a Metric bolt.The difference in size is minuscule and only removes small amount of material. Of course, you are going to need the Tap and Die sets ( which may offset the cost of a new pan ( if you have to buy them).
For the cost of a replacement engine just buy a new oil pan, far cheaper than an engine replacement wondering if your attempted JB weld repair will or will not work LOL.
Been using a Fumoto Valve with nipple for 30yrs. and a rare earth magnet
( neodimium ) on the side ( never on the tip ) of the oil filter.
Awesome.....
Ill be getting one for sure. Thxs Scotty!
I ordered mine from ValvoMax and they have so many orders that I was told it can take 6-8 weeks so hang on people you will get it.
Received?
Mine took a week to deliver to Toronto, Canada from Texas, USA. No delay. Was shipped the day after I placed the order. This was just over two months ago.
A few issues to watch out for. First is the valve isn't as free-flowing as removing the original drain plug so if there is sludge or metal filings, they won't come out as easily. On that note, most OEM plugs have a magnetic end which pulls fine metal out of the oil. Other point is many mechanics and "lube and go" shops won't touch a third party drain plug for fear of being blamed for leakage. I have a fumoto petcock valve on my car for over 8 years, it works great, never leaks, but I don't have the diagnostic of a magnetic plug and I can't find a shop willing to change the oil as an option to doing it myself.
I've been doing my own oil changes since I started driving eons ago. Looks like a fine product.....
installed one. coming up on its first use , so far, so good. no leaks at 1k miles.
