Works great! Very simple to just screw this in and then the oil comes out the end of the tube. The only thing I did was to cut the tube to make a "stub" of a few inches. I felt that the tube was too long. The machined part that screws in seems to be well made and should last a lifetime.
I maintain all of my vehicles and do everything myself. Been doing this for 25 plus years. Don't have access to a tire machine/balancer anymore, but used to do my own tire installations as well. In 25 years, I have changed the oil and filter many times. It was pretty simple. Drain the oil then remove the screw-on oil filter then replace. Now Toyota has this new oil filter system that is now a pain in the butt to change. Was very messy before this tool. Oil got all over the floor. Not any more since using this tool. It is still much more time consuming and more required cleaning of the Toyota's many parts that make up this new oil filtration system. You should have plenty of brake cleaner for this! I am disappointed with Toyota's decision to use this system. I do understand that it uses no metal, so no metal being wasted like on the old style screw on filters. It is more work to change so people will more likely have their oil changed by Toyota or other garages. I say watch some youtube videos and change your own oil! I buy oil filters by the case for all of my long term vehicles. If you have purchased the Assenmacher Specialty Tools TOY 640 Oil Filter Socket Wrench for Toyota/Lexus, you should buy this too. For about 30 bucks, this tool will make oil changes easier! Well worth it in my opinion.
