POLL : Who has a Fumoto Valve ?

Postby Steve9R on Fri, 18 Nov 2011 4:04 +0000

As per Brad Pitt's Question : Who currently has a Fumoto Valve on their Hilux ?

Personally one of the first things I did to our Lux was the Fumoto back in 2007.. never looked back..

If there's enough interest for them, perhaps someone should organise a group buy ?

Good idea Steve :idea:
On the internet you can be anything you want. It is strange that so many people choose to be stupid!

Google it and a supplier comes up where you can buy it, which is why I needed that part number... Thanks Maddog!!

My bashplate is still leaning against the fence from my last oil change.. Its been one of those things I have been meaning to fit...
Would be interested in the group buy... :) :)

Just use common sense and be careful when undoing the last few thread of the bolt and you dont need one?

thats not the point.. an oil change for me.. no removal of bash plates, no oil on bolts, no crush washers, no cross threading etc etc.... simply attach a hose over the nipple and flick the valve release.. then flick it back once empty.. done.
