Detailed Description

This Dorman oil drain plug is made to match the original thread pitch and sealing style used on a range of Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, and Mazda vehicles. The M12 x 1.75 thread size and 15 mm head size make it a direct-fit service part for applications such as the Ford Escape, Ford F-150, Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ, and Mazda 6. The included gasket helps support a proper seal at the drain point during oil changes, while the steel body provides the strength expected for repeated service.

Part number 090-153CD is part of Dorman’s Oil-Tite program and is intended for conventional drain service where the original plug has become stripped, damaged, or no longer seals correctly. If you are replacing a drain plug on a Ford Edge, Mercury Milan, or Lincoln MKT, this part number 090-153CD matches the listed metric thread specification and direct-fit application data.

What It Helps Solve

• Oil leaks caused by a worn drain plug seal
• Stripped or damaged drain plug threads
• Rounded or difficult-to-remove hex heads
• Improper sealing after an oil change
• Replacement needs for original drain plug hardware on listed Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, and Mazda models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the oil pan thread size before installation. This plug uses M12-1.75 metric threads and a 15 mm hex head, so it should be matched to the vehicle’s original drain plug specification. Clean the drain opening and sealing surface before installing the new plug and gasket. Tighten to the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended torque specification to help prevent thread damage and sealing issues.

Quality Assurance

Dorman manufactures this replacement drain plug to match original equipment thread pitch and sealing requirements for direct-fit service. The part is built for standard oil drain applications and is supplied with a gasket for sealing at the drain point.
