Valley Pan Drain Plug
Hi Guys,
The valley pan drain plug is giving me problems.
Mine rounded out slightly removing it. Also it has a hole thru it and I don't think that its supposed to?
I'm struggling to find a new one. Ford Dealer said that Ford has discontinued making it?
Does anyone know where I can buy it? Did they really discontinue it or did they replace it with a different part number cause they upgraded the part?
Thanks for your help!

You might want to call R&D IDI Performance. They might have a stock pile of valley pan plugs that you can buy. R&D IDI Performance - Home

*sigh*.
If nobody else comes forward, I'm sure I have a couple somewhere.
I'll set myself an alarm to look in my bolts drawer tomorrow.

i know you want one but is it really that important to have in. Doesn’t a bigger drain hole just drain a lot faster or does it help hold down the pan as well?

I found one. It's used, dirty, but not stripped or anything.
PM me if you are interested.
Yeah, it holds down the pan as well, and I'm pretty sure that you'd get leakage around the valley pan hole without it, into the oil. Not good.
