 Prodrive Oil Drain Pan
Nothing fancy but something whipped out of sheetmetal to make the oil change a little less messy...
Catches the oil from the filter also

 Re: Prodrive Oil Drain Pan
The 27 comes from Kohler with the nipple on it.
Never understood why Briggs doesn't do it. But this contraption Will made is a good idea especially since it catches the oil from the filter too.

 Re: Prodrive Oil Drain Pan
 I got tired of holding a funnel with a lip under it. Lazy people can come up with shit Now I can let her idle until hot and leave while it's draining without worrying about something slipping out or falling. I made it 4" wide by 10" long with a 1/2" lip. It goes under the motor 4" and leans down to have a slope.

 Re: Prodrive Oil Drain Pan
Briggs doesn't do it because it's M16 thread, not NPT.

 Re: Prodrive Oil Drain Pan
I invented this so I could tilt my boat to get every last drop of oil out of the engine.
