Oil drain tube and valve?

[Danny01]

I was wondering when I have to change the oil in my go kart its in a tight spot, so is there any way I can get rid of the drain plug and attach a tube on it with a small valve?
Also when do I change my oil, I will be using it in the winter so before?

I change the oil in my motors about every 30 minutes of run time if not sooner . When there new I do it every time it's started and cut off , it then gets dumped .

depends on what engine you have but many snowblowers and lawnmowers have oil drain extension pipes. Heres what many briggs had just a pipe with a cap inplace of the plug

Won't fit, it's like a 90 degree turn

Why 30 minutes?

If I changed the oil every 30min, I would change the oil 3 times before my lawn is cut.

Do what you will but, I feel it would be a bit over kill.

Now on a New engine I would for the first 2 times but, not after that.

Each to your own.

After a couple changes at breakin, I change when it gets dirty.

Not on my lawn mower , just once a season on it . On my bikes cause none of them are stock and they see high RPM's .

Nothing wrong with frequent oil changes I do it every a lot more than recommended too ( in the 10 to 20 hour range, more often on a new one )

Simple rule with air cooled engines that have no filters, if it looks dirty, it is so change it.....

Honda/clones us a metric parallel thread on the oil plug so a pip for a briggs will not fit.

I think its a metric M8 fine thread ( a bolt off the shelf will fit, this is how I secure my front block support to the gas tank ears. )

I am not aware of any oil plug extended but I suspect there is something on snow blower clones that could be adapted

or just forget the drain plug and tip it on its side to drain it out the fill

I can't tilt my ride because it is like maybe 185 pounds. I would post a pic but I don't know how to do it from my phone.
