ABSTRACT:
A remotely located oil filter and a remotely operated sump drain valve are interlocked such that the drain valve can only be operated when the oil filter is removed. A cable is connected to a lever which is pivotally mounted to open the drain valve in response to movement of a bracket that is affixed to an oil filter plate. Movement of the bracket is impeded by the installed oil filter so that the drain valve cannot be opened unless the oil filter is removed.
