Oil drain valve

Has anyone had any problems with these drain valves, I'm really looking into getting one?
QuickOilDrainValve.com - the best way to change oil

Looks like it would be handy but looks like something that could cause a lot of problems IMO.

I'd be worried about something from the road coming up and hitting it.

Its not THAT hard to use a socket. I can understand this if maybe you change your oil like every week... but I guarantee that the oil change place isn't going to give you a discount for this lol. plus that would really suck if you hit something and next thing you know the engine is locked up and now you have to replace the whole engine.

The risk/reward ratio is not favorable to me.

plus it will drain slower through a smaller hole.

thats right... and that will make the oil come out at an angle, and at a higher pressure. make a big mess

Haha everything ya''ll said is exactly what went through mind when I first saw it. Seems cool, but like already stated, it's not worth the risk.:doofus:

I wouldn't chance it...

...I would however tap a beer can with it. :lol:

Now thats an idea Moze!
