It is metal, yes.

Zero. Different aftermarket plugs simply offer a cleaner solution to draining oil from the pan. There was a long floated rumor going around that the plastic plugs were single use only. However, after ALOT of searching, it turns out the only place that says the plastic plugs are single use is...

Understood. I did indeed.

That’s now 5 that I’m aware of. Did you inspect the plastic nubs inside the oil pan to make sure they were intact? After mine shot out on track (also safety wired) I bought a new plastic plug from the auto parts store, refilled with oil, and finished out my track weekend. When I was recounting...

Happy thanksgiving! It’d be a pain, but I’d be inclined to disconnect the battery (and leave in place) if you’re going to let the car sit for more than 2 weeks at a time. Remove and put on a tender at home if the car is going to sit for multiple months. If you’re going to let it sit a week or...

Holy cow, 37,000 miles in 3.5 years and it’s not a daily…….? I’d say you got more enjoyment out of your car than most!

Window sticker, which shows the vin, then a picture of the VIN plaque in the window. Shouldn’t need any more than that. I wonder if in their system they just had his car as a standard 350, and had been charging him a rate based on a standard 350. At any rate, as long as the VIN matches, they...

The splitter link or reload spray?

After some googling, it seems like none of the gt350s had heated mirrors. Although it does look like you could add aftermarket ones if you really wanted.

You made an assumption not a point (which was only 50% correct.) You assumed I didn’t tell them it was tracked and I didn’t tell them a non standard plug was installed. So, I ask again, what’s your point?

I could swear I’ve had cars that have heated mirrors and it doesn’t show that logo…. But then again I guess I’ve never really looked that hard for the logo. Tomorrow, I’m going to start paying attention :) Are you confident most cars have that logo, or are you saying that specifically about the...

Your point?

It was a gt350, which HPDE days are not exclusions in the warranty supplement in 2019…. So I told them it happened on track and even showed them the video. I did omit to offer up the fact that a fomoco plug was not installed at the time of incident. I had 22 warranty issues addressed in 27...

Agree 100%. Not one person I’ve ever seen or talked to has complained about the plastic fomoco plug.

After a little pushback, Ford ended up replacing it under warranty. When they got the car, it had a factory plug installed. . . If I had to come out of pocket for the repair, I absolutely would have sought compensation for the oil pan and oil.

Found the plug hanging by the safety wire: Here you can see where the metal chipped off as the plug was ejected straight out (it didn’t untwist.) Forgot to add…. When the plug was shot out, it took one of the 2 nubs from the oil pan with it. The oil pan was replaced by ford at $1200.

You mean James Bond mode, where all 10 quarts dump onto the exhaust and form an awesome smoke screen? After it happened to me and I posted about it on the forum, 3 other members sent me PM’s saying it had also happened to them with aftermarket plugs but didn’t want to publicly post about it...

Soooooo I’m not allowed to comment on this stuff anymore until I become a paying sponsor again. Totally unrelated, @Gearz and @Jjmoberg may have seen each other over the last few weeks. I understand @Gearz was showing off some 3D printed stuff he’s made. I wouldn’t say their meeting was a...

That reply was referencing @wingnutt ‘s message above. In the signature at the bottom of his posts says “...sent from the hangar, possibly influenced by bourbon 😬”
