> And now I know....today was the first oil change on the Dakota.
Uh-huh....just had my first experience with that this past Sunday! Quite
the mess, isn't it? Kinda makes you want to start a "What every Dakota
owner should know" kind of a page?
> Anyone else install a FUMOTO valve? If so, have you had any problems with
it?
Yep! After my first Dakota oil bath. Change.
No problems with it so far, but then it's only been a couple of days. Word
of advice if you get one: Read the instructions! And what I mean by this
is, read the instructions! And don't try and torque the valve on by the
nipple like I did (as it's quite sensitive). Instead, tighten the valve on
using an adjustable wrench, to the unspecified amount of torque clearly
unstated in the instructions. Just do that and I'm sure....well....who
knows!
