AIH delete plug**dodge drain plug**

Anyone know what year to use the oil pan drain plug off a dodge cummings to replace my AIH? I searched this forum and found a post that gave this number (704-1378) for NAPA, but their website does not list that plug and we dont have a NAPA store here.

I found the reciept. That is the right #. I think it's for a 99. Have them look it up and cross the number.

Drain Plug

It is a 22MM x 1.5mm although I cut a little off the length so it stick into the manifold to far.

I cut it down then drilled and taped the center to use for the boost line.

I already had my boost gauge in, so I just took the IAH out, chopped off the heating element that sticks into the intake - and stuck it back in!! CHEAP and easy!! O yea - on a side note - I don't know WHAT the heck that heating element is made out of - but plan on using a cut off wheel, or a grinder too cut that element off - I TOASTED a sawzall blade on it without even making a dent!!
