Detailed Description
This Dorman oil drain plug is engineered to match the original thread pitch and thread diameter for a quality seal in the oil pan. The magnetic tip adds an extra layer of protection by attracting small metal particles that can circulate in engine oil after normal wear. It uses a standard hex head and does not require a special tool, making it a practical choice for routine maintenance on metric-thread vehicles. If you are replacing a stripped or corroded drain plug on a Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, or another vehicle using M20x1.5 drain plug threads, Dorman 090-951 provides a direct-fit service part.

Installation Notes and Tips
Confirm the oil pan thread size before installation. This plug uses M20x1.5 fine metric threads, a 0.73 thread diameter, and a 0.76 in head size. Inspect the sealing washer and oil pan threads during service, and tighten to the vehicle manufacturer’s specified torque to avoid over-tightening. Dorman 090-951 is a conventional drain plug and does not require a special tool.
Quality Assurance
Dorman manufactures this replacement drain plug to match OE thread pitch and sealing requirements for dependable service fitment. The magnetic steel design and direct-replacement construction support consistent oil change maintenance on compatible applications.
