You getting as many actual buyers as people who said they would buy in the poll?

So the consensus is if you do use it, have the pan as well?

I had no idea you were going to ramp up again and make them. I was told you were done. I didn't have prep time :) I have to save up and buy skid plates before I can buy this because I just don't trust it sitting out there. I'm afraid a retread would rip it out.

Just ordered mine. I was on the fence about 108 or 108N, but there are a lot of re-treads/dead animals/slow bicyclists laying in the roads around here, so I went with 108. Timing should work out perfect for the next oil change.

Thanks for providing these!

So do we have any pics of a non nipple fumoto (F108) with an OEM skid to see how close it is to the skid?

Same question here really?

Any of these valves and adapters still available? Getting ready to do an oil change shortly and I am debating using this mod instead of the oil extraction method, which can be a PITA at times and takes forever.

New member and did not partisipate in the poll. Ordered mine anyway today. I don't plan on changing my own oil but don't want someone else messing up the drain pan. This site is great.

Me too, I'm almost looking forward to changing the oil.

Will be switching over to Amsoil Oil Filter and oil as well.

Just got through changing the oil and will be ordering a fumoto. Not sure how risky it is to have sticking down from the pan but it has to make changing the oil less messy!

Got mine quick. It did not come with a gasket for the adapter to pan. The one on the valve should be a good sample to match it up at NAPA anyway. I am 4000 mi away from a change. It looks like a better way and should save any chance of cross threading or stripping the pan threads. Thanks

It does not come with one because you use the metal gasket on the OEM plug.

Does anyone here use blue lock tight between the value and the adapter for added security? Not into the oil pan but just between the adapted and value.
