Rep Power: 0 Question regarding Fumoto Oil Drain Vavle
I have done a search for fumoto and found nothing. Has anyone installed a fumoto oil drain valve on the car? If so model did you buy? It can be seen here. http://www.fumotovalve.com/
A friend at work bought one that he said didnt fit on his 1999 civic even though there website said it should fit. I just want to be 100% sure before I order.
Thanks,
Oren

I know fram suredrain works though, Grey installed one.
