Overview

LOCK OPEN OIL DRAIN VALVES
Changing hot engine oil has never been easier! With the SAF-AIR oil drain valve, no wrench is needed to remove the drain plug. A simple push and turn of the SAF-AIR valve locks it in the open position. The valve is made completely from anodized aluminum and stainless steel components. These materials are used throughout the aircraft industry due to their strength and durability. FAA & PMA APPROVED.

Product Notes:
  1. NEVER fly the aircraft with the drain hose attached to the oil drain valve.
  2. Make sure that your landing gear will not activate the oil drain valve when you retract the gear inside the fuselage.
  3. Remember, the valve may fit on your engine, but it is your responsibility to make sure that the valve will work with your application.

I installed this valve and the adapter in my Rotax 912 yesterday. They installed easily, as expected.

This drain valve has a double “O” ring seal against oil leaks, very nice. The one issue I have with it and the reason for four stars is the pin that holds the valve open to drain the oil is tiny leading me to think it won’t take much for it to fail. I could be wrong about this, it may be adequate for the job, just doesn’t seem Like it.

Should have noted that a spacer was required for newer Rotax oil tanks.

Purchased two for my Aircam after reading the application chart provided by ACS. Nothing stating that they do not fit the late model tanks. But if you check the entire accessories listed you will find there is an adaptor required on late models as the baffles have changed. My problem is I dont have roam for the adaptor. Because I was stupid (according to ACS) I cannot return as they have been installed. Only found out they will not work when I tried to drain oil . Lesson learned
