Mower Oil change ease

Worked perfectly for the Hustler Zero Turn we have. Hubby said it installed perfect & drainage completed in just a few mins.

Pros
  • Works great. Easy to install and no oil mess. Now I can change oil with no problem.
Cons
  • The length of the hose may not be sufficient for some applications

Solves 1 problem but creates another

Connected to Little Wonder blower for easier oil changes but takes forever to drain. Hose diameter is too narrow. That's my review.

Pros
  • Wish this came already installed from factory.That first oil change to add hose is always a mess
Cons
  • The hose may require special care or cleaning to avoid damage

Does not work: my feedback

I have a Toro zero-turn with a Kawasaki engine, FH series, but this drain hose does not work. This hose’s thread pattern does not match my engine. I am at a loss!

Pros
  • Easy to use, big time saver!
Cons
  • The hose may be difficult to store or transport due to its size and shape

Drainzit 1012 best in my review

This hose fits Kohler CH440 engine. Worked well for the Power King wood chipper plenty of room to access exit chute. That's my review!

Pros
  • Makes oil changes easier and neater.
Cons
  • The hose may be more difficult to use on newer or specialty vehicles

Handy device for awkward oil changes.

I installed three of these on various devices: leaf blower, chipper/shredder, and power generator. All have poorly placed plugs that would ordinarily create a mess. With the Drainzit device, oil changes are much simpler and vastly less messy. I've had no leaking issues, either. The only potential issue is securing the end so it does not interfere with normal operations. Fortunately, that has not been an issue in my case, but keep it mind, regardless.

Pros
  • Easy to install and use, making oil changes a breeze for anyone
Cons
  • The hose may not be able to withstand high temperatures or heavy use

Great but to short.

I used this item to drain the oil from my Ariens Platinum 24 snow blower. The drain plug is on the side just above the left rear wheel. Unless you remove the wheel it is very hard to drain the oil without creating a mess. I tipped the blower on its opposite side, while I opened the drain plug, so it would not spill out. Then I attached this hose. Put the blower down and the oil drained out into a container thru the hose. It worked great and no mess. The problem is the hose is relatively stiff…

Pros
  • fit great on briggs and Stratton 13.5 hp electric start engine
Cons
  • The hose may not be suitable for use in extreme temperatures or weather conditions

Works great on the predator engines. No problems at all I have a 301cc and it worked just fine. Makes it a lot easier to drain out the oil on my pulling tractor without making a mess on my nice paint.

Pros
  • Great oil drain extension for predator 420 or GX390 or any other clone that falls in that category
Cons
  • The hose may not be effective at draining oil quickly or completely

Parts look to be of good quality but.

Handy item and willing to give a try. Parts look to be of good quality but when installing into the Kawasaki FH680V it felt like the threaded fitting should have been as long as the original oil drain plug. It gives me a little uneasy feeling that it is only caught by a couple threads. What I am trying to explain is by the time you rotate to screw in and the first coarse thread catches the o-ring seats fairly fast.

Pros
  • Haven't installed it yet. Have to go to another state to install it.
Cons
  • The hose may be difficult to use on vehicles with low ground clearance

Great product! I used this on my generator for .

Great product!I used this on my generator for easy maintenance because it is installed in an enclosure where the only door is for accessing the electric start. There would be no way to change the oil without a huge mess.I was going to make my own with various AN fittings and hose but the cost would have cost approximately the same.I simply had to unscrew the drain plug, and screw this one in place. This makes oil changes not only convenient but my intended enclosure design possible.

Pros
  • Made from high-quality materials for optimal performance and longevity
Cons
  • The hose may require special training or safety certification to use

Easy install - my new review

Installed this on my wood chipper, where the oil drain plug is there is no way to let the oil drain out without allot of it going under the engine mount then leaking out on the concrete shop floor for the next month. This quick drain hose went on without any trouble, should make it less of a hassle to change the oil.

Pros
  • little pricey but good concept. havent used it yet
Cons
  • This does not fit like advertised. Too small. Waste of money.......

Good Quality best in my review

I took a chance on this because it didn't give the full thread specs in the name or description (I didn't have a Honda) but it worked perfectly. Good quality construction. In case you are wondering, the full spec is 12mmx1.5mm (Fine Thread Pitch) and I installed this oil changing aid on a Powerland PD3G10000E Tri-fuel Generator.

Pros
  • Quality product also MADE IN USA
Cons
  • The hose may be difficult to clean after use

Plug & Play. in my review

Very straightforward install. Installed on GX390 powered generator. A big time and mess saver for oil changes. Just like many others I wish I would of bought this sooner!

Pros
  • Oil Drain Plugs
Cons
  • The hose may not have the necessary flexibility to be used in all situations

Works as advertised

The positioning on my particular mower makes it a little difficult to remove and install. But even just using a crows foot to install this part, I was able to install it and it has not leaked. Works as it should.

Pros
  • Well made and installed perfectly. Just a little pricey!
Cons
  • The hose may not be compatible with all oil pans

Upgraded the Honda GC160 on the log splitter with this

Works great on my Brave 20-ton log splitter with the Honda GC160 engine. The hose is made of a good quality rubber with all brass fittings. It would be nice if Drainzit included some recommended torque specs, but I tightened it down nice and tight and so far no leaks!

Pros
  • Fits Honda GX100, GX120, GX160, GX200 as well as many other Kohler and Harbor Freight Predator engines
Cons
  • The hose may not be compatible with all types of oil filters or oil pans
