Default Quick APS Oil Pan Question..

What size is the drain plug?

Also,

Does it take the oem crush washer?

I have a small oil leak coming from the plug. If i can get a magnetic plug i will, also, if i can't ill need a new crush washer to get it to stop leaking. Anyone know?

13mm..you should use a new crush washer anytime it is removed..whether it is needed with the magnetic plud, probably will, it all depends on the make of the magnetic plug...
