Is this thing worth a crap?

Who has used it on the plastic oil pans?

 

[jdholder]

I bought that after my last oil change. Going to install and try it out on my next one. I have a ‘17 with the plastic pan.

It works well. Drains a little bit slower but that just gives you more time to drink.

All those drain valves leave the nastiest stuff in the pan. All the heavy metals fall to the bottom quickly.

Good to know. I will prolly skip this on my Bronco 2.7. Ford improved the location of the drain plug and not messy at all.

Why are you trying to make the help's job easier?

I wish there was actually a place I could trust to do this simple task...but I don't. And if you don't change your own oil, you are not a man.

I think this has a magnet on the back, so you can remove it once it's all drained. I'm so sick of having oil go all over the fvking place. Dripping from 7 different spots. Whoever this engineer is who made an access plate, then didn't actually give access needs to be bleed out in the streets and left for the rats.

I know how to change oil, and used to be a mechanic for several years. I just value my time more than changing my own oil. I do most of my own modifications.

Last time I talked to you on the phone, you said you didn't know how to change oil or do modifications. You were even crying.
