    Easy oil change valve

    IMG_8928.jpgIMG_8925.jpgFor those who change their own oil and don't want to use the vacuum method. I installed the new Fumoto valve on my TDv8.
    Easy job.. Nice and clean. I had one on the D4 for years. Never an issue.

    Don't forget to drain from the 2nd plug every couple of changes. It drains the turbo oil return reservoir.

    At the moment I dont have a tray. I'm booked in to a local bloke so we can make a set of bash plates for it.. He made the front bash plate to suit the bull bar on my D4.

    I reckon I might be able to reach in to drain it. But time will tell. Still. If nothing else. Better then the sump plug once the covers are off.

    As for the turbo drain sump. It's constantly drained into the vac pump. I'm not sure I am onboard with needing to drain it.

    Sludge will accumulate if the reservoir isn't drained occasionally.
