Review on EZ-103 EZ Oil Drain Valve: Simplify Oil Changes for Seamless Maintenance by Rob Madden

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Better than Fumoto, imo

Twenty months with this EZ and Fumoto valve. Both feel good. I prefer EZ because the inner diameter is larger so it drains faster. It sticks out from the bottom, but on my Tacoma truck, the crossbar is under the valve, which prevents debris from getting into the valve. It would be very cautious to install these valves on any vehicle where it hangs low as it can get caught in road debris or get hit. Update 05/03/17: After three years the valve is not leaking. Same as Fumoto on my wife's ES350, but I prefer the EZ valve. Note that there have been some complaints about the valve opening, usually on impact with debris, but some people claim they didn't hit anything. Hard to believe but you can easily fit a mini hose clamp to keep the handle from slipping into the drain position - see fig.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Not everything fits
