Stahlbus Oil Drain Valve Plug M12x1.25x12mm Steel M12 x 1.25 x 12mm

This is very high quality, and it is a perfect fit on my Honda GX690 engine. The thread pitch on competing products that claim to fit the GX690 are too coarse. This comes with the crush washer and a cap for the drain plug for when you're running the motor. When you want drain the oil, take of the cap and install the hose by pushing it into the plug and making a quarter turn. No mess! I would prefer a plug with a drain hose that stays attached so I can't lose it, but all the plugs with the permanently attached hoses had the wrong thread pitch. I've run my motor for over an hour with the new drain plug installed and there were no leaks, so the seal is great and it functions as advertised. It is pretty expensive compared to other "easy drain" plugs, but it appears to be a high-quality, finely crafted piece of equipment and will likely last longer than the engine itself. It was easy and quick to install.

Idéal sur ma Smart ForTwo 541 essence. Matériel de très bonne qualité. Facile a installer. Maintenant une vidange d'huile est beaucoup plus rapide et beaucoup plus propre. Je place directement le tuyau de vidange d'huile dans un bidon vide que j'évacue par la suite. Plus besoin de bacs et de nettoyages.... Dommage que le tuyau fourni n'est pas plus long il ne fait que une dizaine de centimètres.

I am a regular long-term user of Stahlbus. The oil change system ordered here (the Stahlbus brake bleeder valves also) have been used in all of my cars and motorcycles (for mc: you should think about ground clearance before) over the years. In this case it was unnecessary nostalgia because the vehicle has a steel oil pan. But for the ALUMINIUM OIL PANS, in my opinion, it is imperative to use such a system to take the strain off the threads once and for all. In use, I recommend changing the oil at operating temperature and with the filler cap open at the top to ensure a good flow, as the cross section of the system is smaller than if you unscrew a conventional drain plug.

It's an excellent idea, in my opinion all vehicles should be fitted with these as standard. Makes an oil change a 5 minute job, so simple it's genius. Has only been on the bike for a few months so cannot attest to the long term quality so far, but initial thoughts are it does exactly what's promised.

So macht ölwechsel spass, noch den passenden Ölfilter mit aufgeschweißter Sechskanntmutter, dann kannst den Ölservice machen, ohne die Verkleitung abzubauen! Welch geniale Erfindung!
