Ordering a Fumoto - do you want one?

I'm ordering the Fumoto F-105S from Qwikvalve and 2+ ships free, anyone looking to get one? I'll put in an order for as many requests and we'll just split the cost when they arrive?

26.95 for the F-105S (short nipple for drain hose attachment)

23.95 for the F-105 (no nipple for drain hose)

FWIW - Hydra-Air wants $44.50 locally - waiting a week is worth the 17.50 to me

If you're interested PM me or post up, I'll order midday/tonight if there's any interest

(if you want the drain hose version, it's $3 for 3' of hose, I'd say 1' is plenty so I can order and chop it up when it arrives)

I love mine! It doesnt leak or anything and makes oil changes nice and clean. Slip a hose on it and drain it right into a milk jug and then use a red cup for the oil filter after all the oil that can drain through the valve is done. Great little piece! I recommend them

Can't believe I didnt think of that. I've see some folks take a flat head to the bottom with a quick tap over an oil change box, but a red cup after it's loosened, not a bad idea at all

/forums are awesome.

you're welcome! haha I don't even let any oil drain out of the filter. A standard red cup is perfect for the subaru oem filter. Just crack it loose with my hands then slip the cup over and loosen it until it falls off into the cup, hold it for a couple seconds while I grab a rag from next to me, set the cup down and wipe where the filter was. Haven't spilled anything on my driveway since I purchased the valve!

Cool, makes 2 so far (sorry Snoop, unless you're flying to hawaii to pick it up lol)

Gotcha Josh; I'm ordering the safety clip for a buck as well, figure it's worth it now than looking for one later; it's "For users driving under extreme conditions " - i think our potholes count lol

I bought the clip as well but never put it on, I drive like a nuthead and haven't had issues. And when I say drive crazy, I mean, I popped the bead off my tire one time when I was screwing around in the dirt....

If anybody misses your DIY group-buy, not sure if Amazon will free ship to HI, but if so, add ~$2 of **** and get it all shipped free. F-105 is $23 & change, F-105N ~$26.

good to know! yeah it honestly looks like a non issue because of the guard underneath too, figured if that area's getting smashed enough to pop the clip, i've probably got bigger problems on my hand haha

good tip! sometimes amazon does ship for free - doesn't look like they carry the 105S (only 105N) which is a bit excessive length imho


for the count, my current order this evening is (unless anyone changes their mind, I'm locking this in by 5pm HI time):

F-105S X 4
Tubing X 1 (3' section)
Safety Clip X 1

delivery estimate is 31st of this month at latest (or earlier)
