Title: Moroso oil pain
Post by: Dudi on July 8, 2019, 22:05
I purchased an MR2 (2ZZ) with a Moroso oil pan which has an allen key drain plug with an o-ring rather than a crush washer.

What's the protocol with oil changes? Re-use or replace? Anyone know where to source the correct o-ring from if I do need a new one?

The o-ring should be reusable if not damaged or deformed by the compression.

Any well stocked hardware store should have an assortment of petrol/oil resistant o-rings.

Maybe amend the title so people do t think it's going to be a "pain" to fit? ;)

Haha only just noticed that.

Fingers crossed I can reuse it.
