Magnetic Oil drain bolt size?
I am going to buy a magnetic drain bolt for my Pro5 and was hoping that someone on this board would know what the size (diameter) is? also what is the thread size? thanks.

i could have sworn i read somewhere on this board... that the new protege's come with magnetic drain plugs. ;/ anyone got any info on this?
|
I went out and checked mine since it is just sitting in the garage...and found out that the Drain Plug IS NOT magnetic. As for the size, I'm not sure how to measure it but it looks like a 3/8 in.
Here is a picture if it will help at all.... http://www.datazap.net/free/mp3-owne...lPan2small.jpg http://www.datazap.net/free/mp3-owne...ilPanSmall.jpg |

well its not magnetic I KNOW that...but as for the size...its is NOT 3/8's....becuause it METRIC...there is no doubt about that. .... MP3-Owner....remove the plug and take it to some autoparts store near by and ask them to tell you want size it is....and while you are there....ask them if they have magnetic drain plugs....that way we can get an idea of what they cost.
OR, if any of you are really curious, next time you change your oil....and you have the plug out and the oil drained...hope in a buddies car if you don't have a 2nd one.....and do the same thing. |
