Votex Oil Drain Valve Install 

Yes they are great.

Thanks for watching. My favorite one so far is the valvomax because it comes with the dump bag. The other two you have to use a drain pan that’s oily and smelly. I know that sounds weird but I live in a condo townhome so I have to keep all my car stuff in the basement. The dump bag from valvomax stays sealed and doesn’t stink up my basement like a bucket with oil residue in it. And the cats won’t accidentally lick it. Volvo max feels most durable between the three as well. Hope this helps. Please like and subscribe

@@BillOfAllTrades2016 Awesome! Thanks for the input. Soon, I’ll purchase a few of these ValvoMax plugs for my vehicles.

Excellent. No worries. You will be glad you did.

I’ve heard good things about those ones. I like the cleanliness of these valves and it’s one less tool I need. Plus now that I don’t need to for fully pop the drain plug with a wrench I don’t even need to jack the vehicle up. Thanks for watching and sharing your experience. Please like and subscribe

I have not tried the fumoto. However it is on my list for an eventual video. I prefer the valvomax so far over the votex simply because the valvomax had an available drain bag so it stores nicely without having to to clean a drain pan. Also the valvomax has a longer thread base so you have to twist a couple more times which is more reassuring that it will stay in. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe

It’s very light. Never actually weighed it up though. The fumoto is next on the list. I email the companies one at a time and request a free demo unit. The three I tested were all free. So I just have to email them maybe in spring to see if they will send a free demo. Got a lot of videos to do before that one. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe.

Votex is Made in the USA. My main reason for purchase.

The K&N filters cost me $7 CAD. I bought 6 of them. Can’t get cheaper than that. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe.

Yes perhaps in the near future and see about getting my hands on one of them.

You will get dirty on the initial install of the valve of course. But going forward it will be mess free for all future oil changes. Also no drain valve manufacturer has ever claimed it will make the job faster. Not sure where you heard that. We are all in such a hurry. Oil changes must be 3 minutes so we can get going again. Then people complain their car is failing. Let’s not rush our oil change. I let it drain slow. While I wait I clean my MAF sensor and air filter. Fill my tires up and give the underside of the car a brief inspection.

@@BillOfAllTrades2016 Good idea.

My tundra drain plug is on top of my skid plate and when oil drain slows it lands on the skid plate. The Valvomax solved this problem. These types of drain adapters are great.

Every car is different. Everybody’s driving conditions are different. We are in southern Ontario where we use salt brine in the winter. Many cars suffer. Thanks for sharing.
