Fumoto oil pan plug
Howdy,
I'm getting ready to install a Skid Row engine skid plate on my 03 TJ & am considering using a Fumoto oil pan plug. Has anyone had any problems with the Fumoto? It seems to have the potential for something like a stick to get in on top of the skid plate & release the valve (though I'm not sure how likely that actually is). Having the nipple to attach a hose to would be handy, though it extends an additional 5/8". An alternative is the Fram Suredrain plug, but I'm not sure how sturdy/reliable this one would be. -- Terry |

While on the topic of oil plugs... mine leaks the slightest amount of oil.
Can I just use teflon tape on the threads or is there something better?
