I need the part # for the oil plug on the back of the engine by the distributor.. anyone have anyways of finding this out.. I went to GM today and I hate when parts guys think they know so much when they don't... trying to tell me I need that plug to be open.. I finally told him to shut up and give me the part # for it.. And he said he can't give out that information.. Is GM running some top secret part #'s now!!.. Idoits!!

 

Dude, it's like a 1/4" NPT plug. Go to the freakin' parts store, lol. That would be a $30 SPO part from GM anyways.

 

Well you know I am like the gm add "Quality GM parts for my GM car" and what is a NPT plug?? hahaha

 

If your speaking of the one on the top of the block by the gasket surface for the intake part # is 00444613 1/4" NPTF

If it is the one on the back of the block it is part # 140817011 1/4" NPTF

The bad part is I believe both parts are discontinued.

 

Well **** me, I was right, lol. Gerrit, just go to a parts store and tell them you need a 1/4" NPT plug. The '85-88 cars had some sort of sender or sensor there.

 

Ok I will goto Napa tomorrow and see if you are right!! smart guy..

 

go crappy tire and go to the plumbing section

Make sure its NPTF. what size, im not sure, but i would look for a 1/4, 3/8,1/2 NPTF.
