How do you guys remove the cap and get the hose thingy screwed on w/o oil r=
unning all over the place?

Also, how do you ensure (e.g. safety wire) the cap on so that it doesn't un=
screw in flight?   Is there a safety wire hole on the cap somewhere that I =
don't see?

Thanks
Kevin

Hi Valin,

I installed a SAF-AIR drain valve per below on my Legacy / IO550.

Easy  / clear access.

t is not a full bore drain, but when I need to drain the oil, I usually do =
that after a flight so oil is hot and it drains no problem.

I don't have pic of installation to hand, but if you want =96 I can grab on=
e when I'm next at airport.
