That's why I went with UPR Drain Plug/set it and forget It on Raptor & Explorer ST.
Price is one time never again.

Do you happen to have the link? I have looked on the site but legit none say they are compatible with a 26 RR.

Out of curiosity, how far did you rotate the drain plug to keep the oil under control when draining it?

IIRC about 1/2 turn. I positioned my hand so I could hold it while approximately 5 quarts drained out, then I tightened it back up. Poured that used oil out of the pan, then drained the remaining 2 quarts.

Thanks! Good to have a reference point for when I go to do a change in a few months before I take it on a long road trip.

Hopefully they don’t warp like the F150 plastic pans do - $3000 repair at the dealer.

I know this is an old comment, but it was the first generation of the 2.7 that had this issue and that was resolved back in 2018, so after 8 years of this gen 2.7 proving itself reliable, I think we can put this particular FUD out to pasture.
