oil drain valve

This is for people who want an alternative to draining oil . I have used this on my old BMW before 12yrs. back. Make sure you get the adapter for it or it won't be long enough to tighten the valve to the oil pan. Disclaimer:I am not associated with this company in any way. It was 1/3 the price ($7-$12) it is now ($30)Purolator
has something similar but, never tried it. I do not use it now because, you still have to use a socket wrench to take off the oil filter housing lid to get to the oil filter. On my old BMW, you did not.
