Default Fumoto Oil Drain valve GB **EOI**

Gents I've been meaning to get myself on of these for some time.

Seeing as no one's mentioned them for over 12 months I thought I'd look into arranging a group buy on them.

For those that don't know what they are:

The fumoto Drain valve replaces the sump plug on your engine with a ball valve that enables you to drain your engine oil without using any tools. They have a positive lock on the valve lever to eliminate the risk of the valve accidentally being opened.

They are very handy if you do your own oil changes. No more oil soaked hands trying to find the sump plug you just dropped into the oil drain pan!





There are 2 types available:

The standard type (type 1)


The hose fitting type (type 2)



**GB on hold ***

Type 1 $26
Type 2 $30


(Including freight to my door)

Minimum of 10 valves.

Standard (Non discounted) prices are:
Type 1 $33.00
Type 2 $36.00

So do you kinda have an idea on what possible discounts there will be or will it just be what they have on their site like this:

Let a few friends know about the Fumoto Oil Drain Valve and you will receive a discount on your purchase. Your friends will also receive a discount. No scams or catches, we just want to get the word out.

Like I stated in my first post, I have emailed them for their Quantity pricing breaks & I'll post up their response once I have it (they are closed until December 10th).

I expect a 15 - 20 % discount off their list pricing.
