EZ Oil Drain Valve-  Adapters

Some oil pans are designed with a recessed drain port, which may prevent the valve from being installed properly.

If the valve cannot be tightened all the way without hitting the oil pan, please use an adapter. Install the adapter to the oil pan and then install your EZ Oil Drain Valve.

It is always recommended to check your oil pan to see if it is recessed or not. Please check our Sizes & Applications for complete details.

Adapter Installation

If you have a recessed oil drain port and require using an adapter for proper installation of the valve, please follow the installation instructions below: 

1.) Hand install the adapter to the oil drain port until tight.

2.) Tighten 1/8 of a turn with a small wrench (socket wrench maybe needed) 

3.) Hand install the valve to the adapter 

4.) Tighten the valve by turning 1/8 with a small crescent wrench.
