Hello guys. Last night oil started running out of the rear plug of the HPOP of my 2001 7.3L, so today I replaced the O ring on the rear plug. When I screwed the plug back in, it never tightened up. It seems that the threads on the HPOP are stripped. Does anyone know of a reliable fix for this or am I stuck buying a new HPOP? I have searched other posts and found a longer plug for the Non-Servicable plug, but I am finding nothing for the rear plug. Any help would be appreciated.

 

call Bob at Diesel O-Rings and he can tell you if there is a fix.
