    I’ve order RCI skid plates for my new Tacoma and before installing would like to install my Funoto oil change valve. Wondered if I need to drain existing oil before adding this valve and basically do an oil change? Ideally would prefer to not have to do an immediate change to save money.

    Also what tubing can I use to make the oil not drain onto the skid plate?

    And is it easy to change the filter with the skid installed?

    This actually works. My dad showed me this years ago when we were changing the oil on my old 1990 Toyota PU. We changed the oil but forgot to put the oil plug gasket on. He put the vacuum on and I pulled the plug and put the gasket on. Didn't lose one drop of oil.
