Tim, do you know the part # for the oil pan plug? The threaded bolt that holds in the oil? And does anyone recommend a size for the washer?

You could go to Toyota to order, or you could go into ANY parts store and look for the little rack with the red HELP! sign. Doorman #090038 is the one that fits the van. It comes with the gasket and costs $2 or $3. The actual size of the thread is M12 X 1.25 X 12mm length. It's got a 14mm head. Tim
Tim, thank you sincerely. For some reason when I went to Autozone, they told me it was the incorrect plug for the make. I told him I had to consult the Toyota manAny thoughts on this?
Also I have decided to go with your plan of just replacing the wire, but do you know what wire it is I need to get? Would I get this from Toyota.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I want to get this van up and running again :(
If they dispute the part, then remove the one that's there and take it in for a match-up. Even if you purchase the wrong one it's only like $3 (so no big loss). Or you could buy 2 of them (the one I said & the one they say) & return the one that doesn't match.
As for the wire, just get some stranded 16 gauge. Before going to a lot of trouble I'd test the sending unit by unplugging it. If that doesn't affect the gauge, then pull the cluster and identify the sender wire up there & cut it. If that allows the gauge to drop to cold, then you'll know the wire was shorted somewhere between the sender & the gauge head. Before routing the new wire, I'd hook it up temporarily & verify that fixes the issue. If it does, then I'd install it permanently. Good luck. Tim
The Toyota part number for the 12mm ID oil plug 'fiber + aluminum crush washers' is:
90430-12031
I bought a package of ten (10) of these on Ebay for just a few dollars. My local auto-part stores do not carry 'quality' fiber-type 12mm size crush washers.
Thank you! But is this the part number for the washers?Originally Posted by MonTex
