Default Which Fumato Valve?

All,

I'm going to put a Fumoto "Qwik Valve" on my S. (Hater's need not respond....)

The question is which one?

Original:

Short Nipple:

Long Nipple:

Right Angle:

I'm inclined to go the long nipple route with a length of tubing, but wonder if it's really necessary.

And yes, I'm gonna get the plastic clip to keep it from opening....

And do I need the extender?

thanks,

The original one is fine. If there's no price difference, then get whichever u like but its not neccessary.

i believe our cars need the adapter. if so, get the one with the adapter as one piece. Js2k sell adapter as well if you need it after the fact.

i purchased the one with the little nipple on it. and i also have the adapter. just waiting to install it next oil change.

I have the original. No issues at all with oil changes. Oil drains fine. Makes my life easier lol.

I don't have the nipple on mine but if I did it again, I would go with a short nipple.
