I really wanted to be able to attach a hose so I could get rid of the big messy oil catch pan. I plan to use a simple container (probably a low 2 gallon gas container) to catch the used oil and reduce the mess. The F108S allows a hose to be attached so that I can direct the flow into the container without any mess. The straight F108 only allows the oil to drain out of the valve directly without being able to attach a hose. Fumoto also makes a F108N that a hose can be attached to, but the attachment end is longer and so it probably not as good for this application.
