    This may be a dumb question but I’m changing oil on my 3406c with a brake saver and seeing if there is a plug on the brakesaver to drain oil as well with the pan when doing a change. If there is can someone show me where. Thanks

    I don't think there is one. At least I couldn't find one on my 3406A anyways.

    Ya I’m just wondering cause last time I changed oil I thought about it and tomorrow I’m changing oil again so I was seeing if maybe the brakesaver itself had a plug or line to remove as well

    Yup mine has one! And it has a ball valve installed from previous owner. But ya about a litre of oil came out of there. Problem is now my #### back oil plug on the pan is so tight it won’t come off. Lol. Front on does so I guess about a half litre is gonna have to stay in the pan till next time. It’s Sunday and I don’t want to break it.... ha
