Detailed Description

Dorman 264-015 is an engine oil pan replacement designed to match the original equipment pan on specific vehicles. It is shaped for the correct length, width, and depth, with a rear sump layout and baffled construction to support proper oil control in the engine. This part cross-references ATP 103026 and Pioneer Automotive Industries 501045 for the same application.

Use this oil pan when servicing a leaking pan on a 1997-2001 Ford Taurus or Mercury Sable, or on earlier 1990-1996 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models without an oil level sensor. It also fits 1995-2000 Ford Windstar without an oil level sensor, plus 1992-1994 Ford Tempo and Mercury Topaz without an oil level sensor. Part number 264-015 is also listed as a replacement for select OE and aftermarket references.

What It Helps Fix

• Engine oil leaks from a damaged or rusted oil pan
• Cracked or dented pan surfaces
• Oil seepage around the drain area
• Improper fit from a worn or incorrect replacement pan
• Service issues on rear-sump wet-sump engine layouts

Installation Notes and Tips

Before installation, verify engine configuration and confirm the vehicle does not use an oil level sensor, since this pan is specified for applications without one. Inspect the sealing surface, drain plug area, and mounting holes before assembly. A new gasket or seal is not included, so use the correct sealing components for the vehicle and follow factory torque specifications during installation.

Quality Assurance

Dorman designs this oil pan as a precision-engineered replacement for the original equipment part on listed applications. The steel construction, baffled design, and OE-style dimensions support a proper service replacement for Ford Taurus, Mercury Sable, Ford Windstar, Ford Tempo, and Mercury Topaz models covered by the fitment data.
