Fumoto valve

Yep, I purchased the F103n version. If you do, use the YM5 discount code for 10% off. No hose included. You can get this from Home Depot.
I received the valve, but I'm waiting for my next oil change to install it. It seems that even with the nipple, it would still be safe from being hit by rocks, snow, etc...

I purchased both versions. I wish I would've gone the nippless route for both.
1) I used a plastic tube the first time around and it was more time consuming putting it on, taking it off and cleaning it after. (You can buy yards of this stuff at any hardware store for pennies)
2) I have not used the tube since. Don't need it and it's not messy w/out.
3) Oil flows out much faster with the nippleless version resulting in a faster oil change.
Bottomline: Fumoto valve is a damn good invention. Just say no to nipples.

The used oil goes directly into an old quart of oil container. Once 4/5 are filled up your done. Dispose of the hose correctly and there is no other mess. Take your oil to Advance Auto Parts (In MD area) and they get rid of the oil for free.
As per the claim that nippless drain faster, I don’t believe that for a second. I had the nippleless version on my Jeep Wrangler and the nipple version on my civic. No difference in speed of oil coming out. I even installed both on different people’s civics and I NEVER saw any difference in the speed oil comes out. The orifices are the same size.
