How To Use ValvoMax Oil Drain Valve Kit System

[@greenbudkelly2820]

I’ve seen a lot of strange stuff in my half century. I’ve never seen anyone drain oil into a plastic bag.

[@chrissahagun4803]

I mean we’ve always drained oil into a plastic container, and it comes in plastic containers. So what’s the difference?

[@PH-md8xp]

@@chrissahagun4803 Plastic bags are much more prone to tears and leaks, that’s the difference. Last think you want is oil leaking wherever you put the bag as you take it to be recycled.

Kirkland oil ?? WTH do you buy that?

[@johnb1658]

@@AreWeThereYet-2025Costco it’s actually a high quality oil. It’s no amsoil but it is actually better than mobile 1.

I drained mine into the last 5qt oil jug from last oil change, this is defiantly much easier and cleaner. This uses tech that has been used to seal open hydraulic systems. Very nice time to share with friends

[@AwkwardHamster]

Thanks for sharing

[@papillon5537]

Thank you just ordered one, saving a lot of time

[@AwkwardHamster]

Thanks for watching. By now I have switched all my cars to use this. Hope to one day find an clean/easy way to take off an oil filter.

[@jamescor1491]

Get an oil change container, it makes it easier to collect oil.

[@uther10]

This is a really cool product, seems to be a lot less pain than some of the others and thanks for the review and video.

[@AwkwardHamster]

Thanks for watching

[@carlovanrijk4039]

@@AwkwardHamsternice video! Def makes the oil changes less messy. I was looking at both this and the Fumoto valve, but this appears to be more user-friendly! Nice thing is, you could drain the oil directly into the container to be brought back to the recycle center, auto parts store, etc. 😃👍🏼

[@jcc766]

I cut the tube shorter and use a 6qt tall jug to flow straight into in. No oil pan catcher needed. Thankfully my Tacoma is tall, may not work for shorter cars unless it’s a flatter container.

[@carlovanrijk4039]

@@jcc766 yeah it probably wouldn’t work for my Honda Civic, but a vehicle with some decent ground clearance like yours (or an SUV), yeah I can see it. 👍🏼

[@alphamegaman8847]

Unfortunately you still make a mess from the oil filter replacement. 😕

[@vrod1a]

Great product 👍 Much better than Fumoto

[@UnitedPebbles]

Eh you have to make your own stick w Fumoto??

[@pattime2laugh599]

In your opinion, why? Where do you keep the adapter that screws on the Valvo? Any foreseeable issues if the oil is sometimes changed at a dealer or Jiffylube?

[@ksavage681]

@@pattime2laugh599 You don't take it to shop. They will remove this and put in a regular plug and not tell you.

[@blakefindlay1870]

man I wish my oil filter was right where yours is

[@chrism8013]

WTF are you gonna do with a bag filled with oil?? LOL.🤣

[@AwkwardHamster]

Pour it in a drum at the recycling center.

[@PH-md8xp]

@@AwkwardHamster 👍🏼

[@barneymiller6204]

Did you change the filter??? I hope so.

[@AwkwardHamster]

Oil filter is changed at every oil change

[@CostantineYoussif]

Don’t you ever need to change the gasket or something? Is setup for life ? Or you should change it often ? Thanks again for tutorial 👍🏼

[@AwkwardHamster]

I haven’t had to change any gasket. The original parts are still working.

[@hgrove2699]

Draining oil into a trash can. That is a first

[@carlam329]

What about tbt oil filter. You can’t avoid that mess

[@scott9369]

That was my thought as well. you still have a mess with the oil filter

[@AwkwardHamster]

I haven’t found a way to change the oil filter without getting my hand dirty.

[@morg4620]

Before you unscrew the oil filter put a good sized ziplock bag over it then remove. Any oil dripping will go into bag. Filter and any residue oil removed cleanly

[@cecillec2331]

@@morg4620 You beat me to it. Yes, exactly what I've been doing for many years.

[@diggler64]

This ticks a lot of my ocd boxes😂

[@MrMikey1273]

I don't understand how draining it in to the plastic bag is cleaner 😕 it needs to be in a sealable collection container and taken to be recycled. I'm hoping you didn't try to place that in the trash.

[@PH-md8xp]

I had exactly the same question.

[@darelvanderhoof6176]

Tactical error: should have put in some of the new oil to make sure the valve had reseated and was not leaking, before screwing the cap back on. But it's a nice video anyways.

[@0alejandromontes0]

I'm not fully conviced. I would have to make a mess from the filter in any case. 😅

[@AwkwardHamster]

I just ordered my third ValvoMax. This time for my Honda Accord. I haven’t found a clean way to remove the filter. I tried plastic cup, plastic bag, but still make a mess. Just yesterday I was wondering if I should try puncturing a hole in the filter to drain it some more before unscrewing. I saw that in a video. Since my car isn’t lifted far off the ground like theirs, I don’t think I can get enough force to puncture the filter at the bottom.

[@AlexeiTetenov]

@@AwkwardHamsterMaybe use a battery operated Brad Nailer to puncture the oil filter?

[@hubadfun5975]

Use empty gallon water containers or Hi-C gallon containers. I dont trust plastic bags of oil on my car with my luck to the recycle center.

[@johnb1658]

Who in their right mind pours oil into a BAG IN A BUCKET ?? 😂 what a weirdo!
