Fumoto oil drain valve F108S 16mm-1.5 short nipple with LC-10 lever clip, bronze quick-drain

The Fumoto F108S is a bronze FS-Series quick oil drain valve with a short 16mm-1.5 nipple and LC-10 lever clip that lets you drain fluids cleanly without removing drain plugs.

The Fumoto F108S replaces the factory drain plug with a user-friendly valve engineered for repeatable, leak-free oil changes. Designed for vehicle-specific fits where a 16mm-1.5 thread is used, the short nipple profile keeps the valve compact while the included LC-10 lever clip secures the lever in the closed position. This model helps avoid damaged threads and frozen plugs, reducing time and frustration during routine maintenance.

How does the Fumoto F108S simplify oil changes?

Instead of working with a conventional threaded plug, you open the F108S valve by rotating the lever to let oil flow out through the integrated nipple. The quick-action lever reduces time spent under the vehicle and avoids repeated socket use that can round off fasteners.

• One-touch lever operation for faster draining
• Short 16mm-1.5 nipple keeps clearance low
• Bronze body for corrosion resistance and longevity
• LC-10 clip locks the lever for safe transport and storage

Will this fit my vehicle and thread size?

The F108S is specified for engines using a 16mm-1.5 drain thread and is classified as a vehicle-specific part. Verify your drain plug thread size before purchasing; the part replaces the factory plug directly and requires the correct pitch and diameter to seal properly.

• Designed for 16mm-1.5 threaded drain holes
• Vehicle-specific fit — check your manual or measure original plug
• International product variations may differ in labeling or instructions
• Works as a direct replacement for compatible drain fittings

What are the durability and safety features of this valve?

The F108S uses a bronze housing that resists corrosion from oil and environmental exposure, and the lever clip prevents accidental opening. Its design eliminates the need to reuse or over-torque original drain plugs, reducing the risk of stripped threads or stuck plugs that can lead to costly repairs.

• Bronze construction for improved corrosion resistance
• Secure LC-10 lever clip locks lever closed during operation or travel
• Engineered to prevent stripped threads and frozen plugs
• Simple mechanical parts for reliable repeated use

How do I install and maintain the F108S drain valve?

Installation is straightforward: remove the factory drain plug, install the Fumoto valve by threading it into the drain hole, and tighten to the recommended torque. Periodic checks for tightness and clip condition keep the valve operating smoothly; if needed, clean the nipple and lever area to prevent debris buildup.

• Replace factory drain plug with valve, tighten to manufacturer torque
• Use the LC-10 clip to secure lever when closed
• Inspect and clean valve during regular oil change intervals
• Follow vehicle-specific instructions and safety precautions

Who is this for? The Fumoto F108S suits DIY mechanics, fleet operators, and professional technicians who want a quicker, cleaner way to change engine oil without risking damaged drain threads. It’s ideal for vehicles using 16mm-1.5 drain threads where a compact valve profile is needed, and for anyone who values repeatable, tool-free drainage and a secure lever lock with the LC-10 clip.
