I'm going to to get the F103N just so I can connect a tube to it.

That's the one I've got. Run the tube into a gallon milk jug, and you've got an oil change where you don't spill a drop.

f- all this time i was draining into pan first, then funnel into a jug, left with 2 dirty pans (since i use a separate pan for the filter drip) and a funnel to clean...

where i could've just hosed it directly into the jug, one less pan to clean. :shakeshead:

only problem is... my car does not sit high enough on my ramps for a jug to sit upright under it.

I've got to lean the jug over a bit, but it mostly works.

the only jugs i keep are usually the Griots' gallon jugs or the 5qt motor oil jugs. they're kinda tall...

and i usually let it drip a good 10-15min so it would be kinda tough to hold onto that jug that long.

im not sure i have anything that i can trust to hold the jug tilted sideways...

Use a shorter jug and just use two of them?

unlike while peeing, since you can STOP the flow in the middle with the fumoto... that's a possibilty.
