Go to an auto parts store, tell them you need an oil pan plug for dodge with the 5.9l diesel.
Here's some directions.http://www.dieselsite.com/index.asp?...PROD&ProdID=48

A cummins drain plug will work off the dodges. Just take in your aih to match it up as there is two different ones. $8.00 is a round about figure.
the power (wire that goes from realy to aih) and ground wires can come off (wire that goes from aih to top of engine), but hook up your blue wire back to the terminal
Felt pretty wierd walking into a dodge dealership to get the drain plug.

Stay away from those Dodge dealers they'll tell ya lies.
Should I get a drain plug from a newer dodge or older dodge?
I just came from Napa they said older dodges are english, and newer ones are metric. Which do I need?
Kind of an off note, but: What size is the id on the map sensor line?

I just cut the heater off with a recip saw and put the AIH back in minus the part that impedes air flow. Worked great and is free. Got the idea from this forum, thanks to whoever suggested it.
edit: left the ground wire on and completely removed the hot wire.

No Codes?
The "chopping off "of the blocking part sounds like the cheap way to go, but wouldn't there be a bigger chance of having the "service engine soon" light come on after this, since the heating element was what got chopped? Just trying to make sure it will be Ok....
