Review on ๐Ÿ”ง EZ-106 Silver Oil Drain Valve with 14mm-1.5 Thread Size by Rafael Gomez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Before installation, make sure the O-ring is tight.

This was fixed when I replaced a plastic oil pan (thanks Ford) with a later model year metal oil pan on my 2011 F250 Powerstroke. The o-ring here is slightly smaller than the OEM connector and does not quite fit the sealing surface. I applied some anaerobic thread sealant just in case the pan and plug were clean, so I figured there couldn't be a better time. It has only driven about 500 miles and has no leaks. Obviously the valve part hasn't been used for an oil change, but this part is pretty straightforward. I actually received this as a 'used' part, there was teflon tape on the threads, someone tried to tape it I think, although teflon probably doesn't work with straight threads!

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Some bugs
