Best Oil Drain Valves of 2025

"I started using this because I kept forgetting the crush washers. It has made changing my oil much easier! It has survived harsh conditions without any issues. No rust, good flow rate, and easy to use."

"I installed this on my Kubota generator. It required lifting the engine slightly, but the installation was straightforward. The clean oil change process is worth the effort. More detailed installation drawings would be helpful."

"I bought this for my 2016 4Runner, and it fits perfectly. It definitely makes oil changes easier and less messy, though I noticed it takes a bit longer to drain. Overall, a great improvement!"

"I was planning to do my own oil changes, so I picked this up and had it installed during my last oil change at a shop. It threaded in without any issues, no leaks, and the lock clip stays in place. Recently, I changed my oil again, and this made it so easy—no oil spilled when draining the pan. I definitely recommend it for DIY oil changers!"

"I purchased this for my off-road Tacoma build. While the stock drain plug is easily accessible, after installing skid plates, I wanted to simplify oil changes. With the skid plate, this setup is fantastic. However, I advise anyone considering this for a Tacoma without a skid plate to be cautious, as it could easily catch on rocks or sticks. Overall, it’s a well-made product, but the utility versus risk varies by situation."

"I’ve added this to four cars so far, and I absolutely love it! Being able to drain the old oil directly into an old jug without any mess is the best part. I can even drain a little to get an oil sample or correct overfilling. I love these valves and plan to use them on all my vehicles!"

"These valves are fantastic! They make oil changes super easy and clean."

"Finally got the valve! I used to struggle with oil changes, but now, I can just hook up the tube and open the valve—no mess at all!"

"I added this to my F250. The second oil change is when I really got to enjoy it. Draining oil is now so simple with the clear hose!"

"I found this product to be incredibly well made and designed. It has made my oil changes much easier and less messy. I love how it saves me time crawling under my vehicle!"

"After using it for about a year, I can confidently say it’s worth every penny. It has saved my drain plug threads after years of wear from traditional oil changes."

"I really enjoy using this valve. It may take a bit longer to drain oil, but I don’t have to deal with the hassle of the drain plug. Plus, I can attach a hose for a neat and tidy oil change!"

"I love not having to deal with fiddly drain plugs anymore. Just open the valve and drain the oil. It's a one-and-done solution that I’ve installed on all my ICE vehicles. I wouldn’t change my oil without it!"

"After changing the oil on my truck while it was hot, I found it incredibly convenient. This valve has been on since my last oil change and hasn't leaked or broken despite rough driving. It fits perfectly, like it was custom-made!"

"The fit is just right. I initially thought it was broken because it wouldn’t open, but after cycling the lever a few times, it worked like a charm!"

"I love how this kit makes oil changes so much cleaner and easier. The drain bag is a brilliant addition, and I can’t believe I didn’t think of it myself!"

"This system has completely transformed my oil changing experience. No more mess! I can now drain my oil quickly and efficiently, and I appreciate that I can reuse the oil change bag."

"While I think this product is a great idea, I do wish the tubing was longer. I had to add extra tubing to reach the bag, which was a bit inconvenient."

"I find this product incredibly convenient for modifying my transmission pan and changing my fluid. It eliminates the hassle of pumping oil back in through the factory port."

"For my 2016 Ecoboost Mustang, the kit came with a washer and the valve. Just a heads-up—an extension fitting is necessary because the valve doesn't clear the oil pan's raised sections. After 6 months and 5k miles, I can confirm that it seals perfectly with no leaks at the valve or threads. It's been working great!"

"I’ve installed these Fumoto valves on every vehicle I’ve owned, and they make oil changes incredibly easy and mess-free. They might be a little pricey, but I’ve always been satisfied with their performance."

"I absolutely love these valves! I have two—one on my 2008 F350 and another on my 2006 KTM 950. They make controlling the oil during an oil change much easier and cleaner. I can shut it off when the bucket is full and grab another one. Highly recommend these; if installed correctly, you won’t experience leaks."

"For my 6.0, this tool is amazing! It makes oil changes super clean, and I’m planning to install it on all my vehicles. I also recommend getting the hose kit to avoid splashing. I can't emphasize enough how fantastic this product is!"

"I installed this on my 7.3 and it's fantastic! Changing oil requires a lot, and this plug controls the flow perfectly. When I need to swap out my oil catcher, I can easily stop the flow. Plus, the new ring that comes with it has eliminated my oil leak."

"I’ve put a Fumoto on every vehicle I’ve owned for the past decade. They are reliable, never leak, and make oil changes much cleaner and easier."

"I always do my own oil changes, and this Fumoto valve is a game-changer. I wish I had known about it sooner, as it eliminates the mess of traditional plugs."

"I've been using these Fumoto drain valves for 7 years across four different cars. They perform excellently, even in harsh Canadian winters, without any leaks."
