Guy's help me out here, I've been having a senior moment,
What's the upgraded part's name for the fuel filter / water seperator drain plug. I need a new o-ring for it and been to a half dozen places around here and no body has one. Ford doesn't sell just a o-ring they want 18.00 bucks for a new oem plug w/a o-ring.So i wanted to go back to where I bought the new drain plug but I can't remember the name of it to save my life. Don't laugh to hard.

Thanks,
Rich

It is simply the plug that came on 2007 and later Ford PSD.but it will fit earlier trucks.

HFCM Water Separator Drain Plug Upgrade

Never seen the o-ring by itself though. If you find it, please post! My o-ring deteriorated and I just used the one off of the OEM plug.
