Decided to invest in one of these ball valve drain plugs as I intend to change the oil quite regularly and thought it would be quicker and a lot less messier. So somewhere else in a forum that others have recommended them. Anyway, ordered the one for a Barra 4.0L 6cyl (Code: F-109) and tried to fit it today....and guess what....it doesn't fit! Wrong thread pitch or something (Murphy's law has it that this sort of thing always happens to me).

Now, before I get severely bitter and twisted and send of an email to these guys, has anyone else had a similar problem and what was done about it? I have a n/a BFII XR6 and I'm sure that I purchased the right one according to their sizing chart.

Did the sump plug thread change in the life of the 6cyl Barra motor or what???

Would like some feedback before I demand a refund or a replacement.

Yeah mate, they have the wrong part number listed I think. Send them an email explaining what has happened and I'm pretty sure they replace it for you.
