ValvoMax Oil Drain Valve - No Tools, No Mess, Fast Drain - for M14-1.25

The threads don’t match and couldn’t use the product

This is a great product. Makes oil changes so much easier. I bought this bec I stripped the threads on my DL1000 (like a stupid jackwad) and had to have the shop repair my bike with a helicoil. Well, long story short; the last trip to the shop for service left my bike leaking oil from the drain plug (a lot of oil). Rather than take the bike back, I decided to try this fix. The Valvomax drain plug. *Here's the trick though*: if you have a stripped thread situation like I do, you MUST use JB Weld's engine gasket sealant. It's the "RED HI TEMP RTV" engine gasket sealant. Comes in a small 3 oz. tube. All you need to do is apply a small amount to the threads of the Valvomax plug and then install. Let it sit for 24 hrs before filling with oil. This simple fix ended my leaking problems. I rode my Vstrom to work the next two weeks...no issues. Leaking stopped. Give it a try.

Used on my 2021 Nissan Titan. Works perfectly and makes changing oil very smooth and clean. Highly recommend.

I bought the complete Valvomax kit. In theory and from the pictures it seemed good draining the oil through the tube and into the bag. I couldn't even do one oil change with this. The oil ended up in a puddle all over the ground. I threw it in the trash, and bought Eco Plug from AutoZone (also sold on Amazon). You're better off getting the Eco Plug magnetic drain valve for a alternative to the traditional oil pan drain bolts. I've used it before and have no complaints about it.

This is a very high quality piece.....I also purchased two competitors products for comparison to determine which I would use....and also have a spare if needed. IMO, the ValvoMax is the best oil drain upgrade available. Not only is it a very high quality product, but it also has a tethered screw on cap for additional security and it comes with a short screw-on drain hose adapter which works great. This allows you drain directly into any container.....zero mess.
