How's she goin'? It's been a while since was dropped by. Glad to see your video today and it was good one too. Nice mod to the oil drain. Thanks for sharing. Take care!!
Nice video! But how about describing the fittings and hose type? Along with where you purchased them? I live by large city and cannot find any of these fitting?
All items should be available from a good hydraulic shop. 3/8 push-lock hose, with 3/8 push-lock fittings. And the metric adapter depends on what engine you install it on.
Good idea! you said that these pieces could be acquired at a hydraulic hose shop. A link to sites and the name of the parts would be helpful. Google tells me that Grainger has the "push on hose fittings" that look like yours but the adapter from the engine to the push on fitting...is it stainless steel ? I put something like the red hose on a standup commercial mower and it broke off and dumped the oil. Fortunately, since I was standing on the mower running it at the time. I noticed it and shut the engine before it could get destroyed.
Hey Rusty I am a new subscriber, I can’t seem to find the qtr 90, push lock and cap. Also what size and type of black hose was that used? Do you have a link for that? I looked online with what you identified each piece as and couldn’t find anything. Thanks for your help. Awesome channel.
Hi Rusty and thanks for putting together this video. I have a Kohler CH440 on my stump grinder. In my searches, I'm seeing some folks calling out a 12mm thread and others thinking that it was changed to a 3/8" NPT. You mentioned the 12mm. Can you verify the pitch of that? My plan is to be ready with both fittings when I make a mess with my first oil change so I upgrade to your tubing set up minus the angle fitting as I really don't want to unbolt the motor. Thanks. Oh yeah, I forgot to ask where you get the adapter fitting with the o-ring seal?
Hey Hey Iceman, that CH440 Indeed has 12mm x 1.5 pitch threads. I order them from my local hydraulic shop, I have found them on the good ol AMAZON. Male end is 12.5mm x 1.5, x 1/4FPT. You my find that you need to loosen the engine to install.
Parts will very depending on what engine you are setting up. Once you know the thread pitch of your engines oil drain plug, your local hydraulic shop should be able to help.
@@TheRustyRooster Thanks for the reply. I looked up the drain plug part number for this engine and then the specs (some online folks were kind enough to post what the OEM likes to keep as 'trade secret' Lol). I found a low profile 3/8 in NPT elbow and will make a pipe version. Looks like I'll be able to install the elbow without touching the engine mounts.
Yes, the larger opening will drain the oil faster. What's the big rush? I use the red hose that he did not like. I come back in 10 minutes later, and all the oil is out of the engine. The advantage of the red hose is I don't have to make anything. I can buy it and install it in less than 10 minutes. I'm not criticizing this man's improvement, I just don't see that it's worth the additional effort.

Hello I just subscribed to your Channel I was trying to figure out why my scissor lift table I picked up in some junk will only go up apparently I need a controller not sure how to wire any suggestions I did a video on it working but can't find any brand names on this thing
Thanks fella I sure appreciate that... I'm not sure about your lift, but mine is electric over hydraulic. Yep, like yours, it came from junkyard with out control. I wired 2 garbage disposal switches together. 1 for up one for down. 1 powers the lift, the 2nd controls the pressure release solenoid.... hope that helps
@@TheRustyRooster hey thanks for replying back I've actually got mine working it was a 3-phase I converted to single phase and I just want to a 220 plug to raise it and one can switch to lower it works for me for now I'm a put it all in the same circuit at some point have a good night and thanks again
Hey Rusty what's the thread pitch on that 12 mm adapter? These Chinese Briggs are supposed to be 12 mm x 1.25 pitch from what I'm told. The only thing is the only adapters I find is 12 mm x 1.50 thread pitch. I tried some local hyd. shops and they don't have metric, at least that's what they told me.
@@TheRustyRooster I am too Rusty. I only have about 4 hrs. on this machine, and I plan on changing the oil quite a bit during break in, these Chinese Briggs motors don't have a real good rep.!
Nice tip RR. It seems like changing oil is the last process engine manufacturers think about. ✌🇺🇸 Roger
Hey hey Roger, yes Sir. Looking out for the next guy
Had to watch again for a refresher
I know ol-buddy like watching a train wreck, hard to look away. LOL....
Smart addition for those engines
Got to do it if you don't have an oil vacuum it's going to get messy
Super idea Rusty. I think I'll do the same to my pump, This winter. 👍👍💪💪
Yes sir . Engine, pump, gearbox
Brother, that right there was AWESOME!! Love it, that can help on any riding mower also !!
Yep. And makes it easier for us ol wrench turners
Always thinking that’s what I like about you make it easier to drain the oil nice little extra
Thanks Henry if it's easy to change maybe it will get done more often
Very nice video.
wouldn't you need to put a little extra oil in the crankcase to make up for the volume in the added hose?
Yes, I'm positive you will have to add a touch more oil.
How's she goin'? It's been a while since was dropped by. Glad to see your video today and it was good one too. Nice mod to the oil drain. Thanks for sharing. Take care!!
All good Mike Thanks
Nice job Rusty, makes it a whole lot easier and neater. 👍
Yep nn thanks for stopping in
Anytime bud

All items should be available from a good hydraulic shop.
3/8 push-lock hose, with 3/8 push-lock fittings. And the metric adapter depends on what engine you install it on.
Can you put a valve between the hose to control the oil out?
You can add a valve if you like, and they make them just for this use. I don't use them. I have seen them accidentally hit and drain the oil.
Might have considered a Fumoto oil drain valve with the nipple option. F139/F109 series
Those are great. Thanks for watching and sharing this info....
Hi Rusty... Can you provide a link for the adapter (12m x 1/4) shown at 1:58 in your video. Thanks
amzn.to/45Avcvv
This should work I order from my local hydraulic shop.
That's 3/8 sorry
amzn.to/47SvL5c
12m x 1/4 mpt
A much better set up than the $25 plastic 'kits' that Briggs or others sell.
Appreciate ya watching thanks a bunch

The 12mm fitting on the red hose is very thin walled and seems to snap off easily . Thanks for watching and commenting
That's exactly what I was looking for. Replacing the engine on my snow blower and that is going to work perfectly. Where did you get the parts
Local hydraulic shop is where I get these supplies
Nice I have a B&S 8 K generator that could use this . If ever there is a swivel type fitting that can put on the engine in chassis .. let us know .
I've looked around no go as of yet as to a trustworthy swivel
Nice oil drain tool for your removal of the engine oil which is the Life blood of the engine
Yes sir it's the life of an engine

Thanks. I have those skids made at my local fab shop
Ok they r nice looking
Looks factory Rooster - thanks for sharing this 👍👍
Thanks, put one on everything that gets built
what is the application of that engine ?
Those engines were used to build pressure washers

where do you get the parts for that conversion? Thank you.
Try your local hydraulic shop
I think installing a valve would be nice.
Give it a try. I personally don't trust a valve in this application unless it can lock closed
Where are fittings and hose from
My local hydraulic shop
Nice job, rusty. What size drain hole is that bolt?
That engine is 12mm
@@TheRustyRooster ok thank you.
Rusty, is this the same size hose drain for the GX690 Pressure Washer?
Great video, where would I be able to buy the fittings?
I order from my local hydraulic shop I'm sure you can find them on Amazon
What size adapter do you use on the Briggs
Hey Rick, on the 14hp briggs Vanguard 12mx1.5 pitch. On the V-Twin briggs it's 3/8 npt
Good idea Rusty well done 👍
Glad you like it
Good job Rusty
Thanks Steve 🐓 👍🏻
Hey Rusty what's the thread pitch on that 12 mm adapter? These Chinese Briggs are supposed to be 12 mm x 1.25 pitch from what I'm told. The only thing is the only adapters I find is 12 mm x 1.50 thread pitch. I tried some local hyd. shops and they don't have metric, at least that's what they told me.
The vanguard 14hp uses the 12mx1.5. I'm disappointed in your hydraulic shop.

Thanks I'm working on one just for you

Your adapter hole is as small as the other hose you did not want to use. Still will drain slow.
Yep, you are correct, yet it's not going to snap off. Thanks for watching.
Very cool.👍
Thanks 👍
Great video
Thanks for the visit
