Its not a huge deal to separate the hoses but if changing the oil often it would be nice to plumb in a valve or some type of plug to reduce long term wear on the hose seal. Anyone done this? Or any other thoughts?

I'm revaluating my setup as well. Single AN16 hose between the bottom of the tank and the engine makes oil changes a pain. Now that the 45 fitting at the bottom of tank is leaking I can't procrastinate any longer.
Has anyone considered plumbing a Fumoto style valve into the system using a T? I haven't had time to research these but they look promising. Mike |
