OK this is good to know - unfortunately learning this a bit too late…question now is, do I gamble and leave it until the next oil change, or leave it and swap back on the next change…TBD. Not tracking, but will have to think about this. Thanks for flaggingHave to agree with this concern. I replaced my oil plug thinking I was upgrading and ended up blasting it out of the oil pan (despite being safety wired) and requiring a new oil pan. Expensive lesson - stick with OEM or similar plastic. Aftermarket metal expands at a different rate under heat than the plastic and the higher weight under vibration ends up causing problems.
