oil Fill plug. 2001 EC250

[Dirt Dawg]

wondering if anybody can help me figure out a replacement for the oil "fill" plug on a 2001 EC250. Mine was somewhat stripped. I got it out but prefer to replace it with a new one. Cant seem to find any crossover on that part and cannot find the part here in New Jersey.

GoFasters or I bet Steve at Afterhours has them. BTW I use the drain plug for the fill as well as the drain, gives me 2 magnets in the oil ME25610017 is the GG part number

You can visit your local friendly Ford dealer and speak to one of their diesel techs.
Tell him you want a high pressure oil pump plug.

Or, I can send you one. They are metal with an o-ring built in. No magnet.

Thanks so much. I like the idea of using two drainplugs!

Great tip and easy to find. Thanks!

any M12x1,5 plug will fit.

Yea, which is also the same as the KTM drain plug. Its not the ideal shape for a drain plug as it sticks out from flush with the case, but is ok for a fill plug. Its a proper bolt, instead of a recessed cap screw.
