oil drain bolt crossover ?
I looked through the "crossover parts" section.
I searched "oil drain bolt". (Try it. You get 11 pages of...) I've changed the oil at least 50 times on this bike. No problems. I managed to strip the Allen head tonight. I don't want to remove it until I have a replacement. Would another brand's part cross over or can I get a suitable replacement at a hardware store ? If so, what's the best method of removal, EZ-out ? I know it's not very tight in there. Help ! I'm leaving Wed. night and hope to not have to put 2 days riding on 100-mile-old oil. |

Go to your friendly Ford dealer and talk to one of the diesel techs.
Tell him you want the plug that goes into the top of the high pressure oil pump on a 6.0L motor. Or, PM me your address and I'll send you one. Use a Torx bit to remove the drain plug. |

Thanks for the lead on the plug. I'll stop there tomorrow. The Torx is a good idea too.

You're welcome.
I'm a diesel tech at a Ford dealer, when I saw that bolt a light bulb went off. Brought it home and it's an exact match, even has the O-ring built in. No magnet though, which is a good thing, due to the fact they can come loose. |

You already have a suitable replacement - it's the oil fill bolt up top. It's exactly the same except for the magnet. You can use the bad one for the fill bolt after you cut a slot in it for a common screw driver. Do put the good bolt in the bottom, order a new one, then change the bolts around on your next oil change.
