Default Fumoto Oil Drain F-104(N)

Has anyone installed this style of oil drain? Any feedback or opinions appreciated.

I put a Fram Fram Sure Drain Oil Change System - JEGS drain on my titan and really like it because with the hose it stops all the oil splatter .

I bought one and after looking at it I am concerned about installing it. I am worried that it will hang down too low and potential catch on something which could be catostrophic. Any one else consider this issue and what did you do?

I looked at these too but decided against it for the very reason you sited.

There is another problem with these units. They do not allow the oil and stuff to complete drain from the pan. The threads stick up into the oil pan so there will always be up to 1/4 inch of oil still in the pan. This is not good at all on our 6.7L engine due to blow-by reasons. You really want to get out as much of the old stuff as possible.
