Hahhahahah Angry

Used to be only about $15 more to have them do the work.

I'll have you know Tom that the oil went into the truck within an hour of purchase.

I let the the local jiffy lube change the oil in the bronco-2. I wont let them touch my diesel tho, and they cant get close to my price on an oil change. Runs me about 40 bucks. They want like 99 at the place up the street.

Takes me the same amount of time to change my oil as to drive there and let them do it, and the local garbage company takes my oil right off the street in 1 gallon milk jugs, so no driving to get rid of the oil either.

flip the lever on my fumoto valve and walk away for an hour. Come back, change filter, close valve, refill with oil. no fuss, no muss, no messy applicator brush.

I used to let JippyLube change mine as I had this coupon card they gave me, they were changing it for less than I could buy the oil for and they were even using the Rotella Synthetic. Then once I let them change a fuel filter and they broke my cap and wanted me to pay half for it, I told em to get bent and never went back after they were done fixing it.

I just changed my oil for the first time using the Fumoto a week ago... damn I love that thing! Sooo nice to just flip the lever and watch the oil come pouring out- no more hot oil all over your hands and down your arm. Plus, no spillage when switching between containers.

What is this Funoto you speak of? A ball valve on the oil drain plug? I have this sweet 5 gallon drain pan. It is perfect for draining my oil and then taking it to Smucks to drop it off.

Reply #12 - 03/30/09 at 07:37:40 Squirrel- basically yes, ball valve that replaces the stock drain plug in the pan. http://www.genosgarage.com/prodinfo.asp?number=FTP-F111 That's where I bought mine. They also sell one with a barbed nipple in case you wanted to hook a piece of hose to the drain valve for some silly reason.

Reply #14 - 03/30/09 at 11:07:36 Not really, you have to pull the lever out and rotate it to open the valve. Plus, most of them come with a small safety clip that won't allow the valve to open until you remove the clip.
