Stop considering and get one Bill, with the nipple. Pop a piece of hose
on it, flip the lever and watch the oil drain into the pain, no mess, no
fuss. I can do an oil change in about 10 minutes :) Prior to the Fumoto,
it was an exercise in watching oil drip out of all the little holes in the
skid plate.. :)
No clue what the part # is Barry, but I'm sure your local parts dept. can
give it to you.
