If you notice oil on the ground where you typically park your car, it's likely that your oil drain plug is leaking. Another way to tell is if you check your oil level and it's lower than it should be. You can also check the oil drain plug itself for any oil residue. If it's leaking, you'll need to replace the oil drain plug and gasket.
Oil drain valves make oil changes much easier and less messy than the old method of removing the oil pan drain plug. Most oil drain valves screw into the oil pan in the same location as the drain plug. Installation is easy and only takes a few minutes.
If your car has an oil drain plug, it's most likely located on the bottom of the engine, near the oil pan. To open it, you'll need a wrench that fits the size of the plug. Once you have the wrench, place it on the plug and turn it counterclockwise until the plug is loose enough to remove by hand. After the plug is out, the oil will start to drain out.
It takes about 15 minutes to drain the oil from the engine. You will need a catch basin to catch the oil as it drains out.

This oil rain pan is beautifully manufactured. Nothing weak about this. The material is robust and thick. has convenient grip handles for repositioning beneath the vehicle, controlling, sliding, and hauling heavy oil at the back and around the front spout. Additionally, I hang it or store it conveniently on the wall using the hand front hole when not in use. When hung on the wall, a well-made rim lip prevents residual oil from dripping out. Nice!For me, an 8 quart oil change means that this large oil pan is less than halfway filled, which prevents any sloshing out. Ideal for bigger vehicle or truck oil changes. You need something smaller and less tall if you're a small import with a low chassis and limited space. With more room beneath the carriage

with a little room to spare, caught 6 quarts, and simply put the liquid back into the empty 5 quart jug without spilling a drop. Without a funnel, the spout fit in the jug and poured fast. With no mess or fuss. To remove the remaining oil, I used a little brake cleaner, and I tucked a small piece of paper towel in the spout to absorb the oil so it wouldn't drop out when I stored it. excellent pan. I'm delighted I bought it because recycling the oil in another container takes less time and creates less mess.Have the spout end towards the direction you would take the pan out from under the car, as another reviewer advised. If you don't, the oil will leak on the ground when you slide the pan out from underneath the car and slosh to the rear.

Worth the extra money for the high quality. After crawling under my truck and discovering a Toyota filter wrench still lodged on my oil filter and more than half the bolts gone from my skid plate, I made the decision to start changing the oil in my car, truck, and the wife's SUV. I'm done with Jiffy Lube. That skid plate could have damaged my truck or, worse worse, injured someone on the road if it had come off. The ideal size for 7 to 8 quart oil changes, no leaks, and low profile enough to fit under a Camaro without having to fully jack the car up ensure that the car is properly level in the driveway and that all the oil can drain out.

Why someone gave this a rating of less than five stars is beyond me. This funnel earns ten gold stars.On three of my German cars, the oil drain bolt is located on the side rather than the bottom of the oil pan. So what occurs? Instead of straight down, the oil shoots out in a lateral fashion. I can either hold this funnel in a 180-degree deflector shape or not. When I remove the drain bolt, the oil shoots out sideways into the funnel and straight down into my oil catch pan when I bend/wedge it up and back into the car. Anyone who wants to use this in place of a typical funnel shouldn't be permitted to write product reviews. This is a fantastic funnel, even for use with liquids, but you must shape it correctly and keep in mind that it is not completely closed and sealed. I guess some of the reviewers overlooked the fact that this is a forming funnel!It operates flawlessly on the Volvo, Benz, and Audi in my family. In order to let the oil drain to the form funnel and into the oil catch pan, you can form it into the shape you desire, wedge it or clamp it under the car, or both. While the oil is draining, you can do something else, such as change your filters, as opposed to having to stand underneath the car while quarts and quarts of oil drain!Oh, and cleanup is a breeze. With a quick spray of break cleaner, purple degreaser, soap, and water, you would never know that engine oil had ever been on this. In fact, the nitrile that this product is composed of prevents oils from truly adhering to it.I wish I had invented this thing because it is really fantastic. Even at the price it is at, I would buy another one in a heartbeat. I just wish it were a little more inexpensive.If my review was helpful to you, kindly click YES; this will motivate me to keep writing and updating my reviews. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment; I'll be pleased to respond if I can.

I've been using these valves for a long time. For oil changes, no tools are needed. The oil filter can be manually undone if it has been hand-tightened. makes oil and filter changes simple. I tell friends to buy these valves. Do one. Purchase it, keep it until your subsequent oil change, then swap out the plug with this valve. To tighten the valve body, use a crescent wrench. You won't regret it. Now I always purchase the valve with the exposed pipe. It makes it incredibly simple to divert the oil flow in any direction by just connecting a short 3/8" hose. The hose may simply be slid on without needing to be clamped. An old, empty 5-gallon jug is what I usually use. I have a few of them, and I recycle the used oil by taking them to the auto parts store. Using these valves will cause the oil to drain a little more slowly. Spend some time oiling the gasket and filling your new oil filter with fresh oil; by the time you're done, the old oil will have been drained. Excellent system, I say. No more beginner oil change technicians stripping pans or plugs. The gratification of performing the work yourself is another benefit.

God forbid you install ANY drain pans of this style in your car when it's full—they ALL leak! Not just this one, either.Gather your oil, put it in the empty jugs that your new oil arrived in, and then take it to a recycling facility.Don't move it in this or any other drain pan with a similar design.Simply get the one that fits your crankcase capacity and store it in the garage.This one is pretty much perfect for a DIYer.The screen catches your drain plug so that you don't have to fish through hot oil to find it, and the opening is large enough to allow for gentle breezes.This pan's top aperture was more than big enough to fit a 4Runner.After dealing with skid plates, changing the oil was a breeze.

This is something I've had for a while.People that leave the majority of negative reviews are either using the product with viscous fluids for which it was not intended or they are not giving it enough time to cool down between heavy uses.With this product used with transmission fluid and oil, I have been incredibly pleased.I have refrained from pouring gear oil because doing so is undoubtedly outside the scope of this item's design, and if I ruin it by doing so, it will be my own problem. As I said, it is a significant labor saver for fluids.
If your car uses conventional oil, you can expect to pay between $20 and $30 for a new oil plug. If your car uses synthetic oil, the cost will be between $30 and $40.
Most carmakers recommend an oil change between 7,500 and 10,000 miles, although this varies depending on the type of engine oil, the age and make of your vehicle, and your driving habits.
The oil drain plug is located at the bottom of the oil pan. It is usually a metal or plastic plug that is screwed into the oil pan. The oil drain plug is used to drain the oil from the oil pan. The oil drain plug should be replaced when the oil is changed. The oil drain plug should be replaced if it is damaged.
How often to change your oil depends on the type of driving you do and the type of oil you use. If you do a lot of stop-and-go driving or short trips, you should change your oil more often. If you use conventional oil, you should change it every 3,000 miles or every 3 months, whichever comes first. If you use synthetic oil, you can go up to 7,500 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first.
The oil drain plug is a vital part of your car's engine. It keeps oil from leaking out and keeps dirt and debris from getting into the engine. The oil drain plug should be tightened to the specific torque specified in your car's owner's manual. Over-tightening the oil drain plug can strip the threads, making it difficult to remove the plug in the future.
