Proprietary parts? Yuck. Poor science behind them? Even more yuck!OK, it's a bit messy to do the initial install, but once you do you'll never look back. Just get a pile of rags before you begin.For those of you who don't understand the problem, Deere is selling a quick-change oil-and-filter gizmo for well over $50 in my area. Yes, you get a new filter, but it only changes out a fraction of the old oil. So you put a clean filter and some new oil onto your engine still filled with dirty oil. This is a bad idea. I worked for 13 years in the lubricants industry and could go on for hours about this. But, to be fair, Deere has made it easy for the lazy to do at least some good with their easy change system.Installation of the kit will take a while. I think I spent half an hour doing it. Big issue was finding tools that fit. How many of you have a 28mm socket? But, an adjustable wrench held just right can get it done. Similarly on the filter nipple that you have to install. There's a popular video site on the InterWeb for YouToBeSeeing that has a lot of good tips for those of us that don't have a $20,000 shop at our disposal.Once you've converted, oil changes are now down to a common spin-on oil filter that costs maybe a dozen bucks and two quarts of common automotive engine oil. Oil changes now cost 50%-70% less. And ALL of the old oil is swapped out.This is the way to go. A trade a bit of inconvenience on day one for continued savings and better health of your expensive tractor for the rest of its (potentially longer) life.

This is a simple conversion and pays for itself with the first oil change. I installed this on my John Deere S120. If you are concerned about how to do the conversion, there are great videos on the famous "DIY video place".

So glad this conversion kit exists. Easy to install and saves beaucoup cash by eliminating the need to buy that gimmicky 5 minute quick-change JD oil filter which leaves over a quart of dirty oil in the engine.

Converting the John Deere S120 riding mower e-z oil change over to conventional oil filter was pretty straightforward with this kit. If you have trouble with the oil plug, I used a 1/2” socket (12 point) just tap on with a hammer it will work. I would recommend this kit easy and will save you money in oil changes

The switch over kit was complete. It was simple to install, but be ready for some oil to escape. It was amazing just how much oil is not changed out with the ECOS filter.Save your engine, save your money! Install this today!

I get the easy-oil-filtrr install but it doesn't really get all the oil when replaced. It's also pretty expensive if I had to do it every year. I have an E120 and I have kept up with most of the maintenance. It's at 82 hrs now and before I start cutting grass this year I decided to do a full maintenance. Overall I think JD and Briggs could've designed the usability better. Installing this kit was a bit messing. It would've been worse if I didn't siphon out most of the oil. There are videos on how to install this kit but I'll give one major tip. To remove the oil drain plug, I just used a 1/2" extension and a big adjustable wrench. I didn't need a socket at all. Ok one more tip, make sure to clean all the oil from the pulley. Better yet, just put an oil absorbent pad above the pulley to catch the oil the will spill down. I wish there were a little bit more room to install the new oil filter. Other than that, the kit works really well. I would recommend it.

Three years ago, I purchased a John Deere (JD) E120. At the time, the Easy Change ™ 30-Second oil filter was $30. Now it is $50, a lot of money for a filter that requires replacement each season (according to the owner’s manual) and only replaces about 1/2 quart of oil. I had also been having concerns about engine longevity and reliability by replacing such a small amount of oil.This season, I decided to revert to the conventional oil change system and purchased theJohn Deere OEM Easy Change Conversion Kit to do so.As you can see, it comes with everything you need, Oil Filter, Drain Tube and Adapter Fitting The drain tube has a twist lock cap with o-ring seal to which makes draining oil easier.Additionally, you will also need:8mm socket with 3" extension or nut driver to remove the side plastic covers1 1/8 socket to remove the JD filter adaptor (an adjustable wrench can also be used).12mm hex wrench to tighten the adapter fitting (A 3/8" socket extension can be substituted)14mm socket to remove the existing drain plug15/16" socket to tighten the new drain tubePlumbing Teflon tapeThreadlocker Red 271Drain pan small enough to fit under the enginePlenty of shop towelsBrake cleaner (the cheap stuff is more than adequate)2-quarts of 10W30 oil (conventional oil can be used but I prefer synthetic)I also suggest putting down some cardboard or plastic under the engine area to contain the inevitable oil spillage.Installation was simple and straightforward. There are a number of detailed videos online that details the process.Before starting the process, I opted to siphon as much oil as possible out of the crankcase using a small hand siphon pump. This reduces unavoidable spillage when removing the JD filter adapter and drain plug.Despite diligently changing the filter annually per the owner's manual, the 1.5 quarts of oil that I removed from the crankcase was almost black which confirmed my concerns about the inadequacy of the Easy Change ™ system.Teflon tape was used on the drain plug to ensure no leakage. Theadlocker Red was used on the adapter fitting to ensure it did not come off when removing the filter.What spillage that did occur on the chassis was easily cleaned with the brake cleaner and shop towels.Lawn tractors are not an inexpensive investment and replacing a $50, obviously inefficient oil filter each year only adds to the cost while increasing the risk of pre-mature engine failure.With the JD OEM conversion kit, I am assured the engine is being better lubricated with a new filter AND fresh oil each season which increases reliability and potential longevity. Additionally, the conventional oil filter and 2 quarts of oil is half the price of the Easy Change ™ system.NOTE: Please dispose of the old oil and filter responsibly.
