When using this kind of a valve you must be VERY careful it is not where it can get easily knocked off. If Kayo can recommend it (he drives in NYC and the roads are terrible!) then it must be OK. The only disadvantage is it is not magnetic. The big advantages are you will never strip the threads, you can change the oil without any tools, and it won't leak.
