CTA 4334 Cummins Oil Filter Plug
- The Cummins Oil Filter Plug is a tool that is used to plug the oil filter when changing oil on 2013-2017 Dodge Ram Cummins 2500/3500 Heavy-Duty Trucks. It threads into the filter for a secure seal so the filter can be removed from the tight space without spilling oil. It also has a T-handle that makes removal and installation easier.
- Features
- Prevents spillage of hot oil from the oil filter cap on Dodge RAM 6.7L Cummins Diesel Heavy-Duty truck, due to the placement of the oil filter
- U-handle makes removal and installation easier when reaching from locations where your vision is obscured
- Ridged side allows for removal of tool from cap with locking pliers
- When changing the oil, reach above the oil filter and screw the plug into the oil filter for a secure seal, and then remove the oil filter from the tight space without spilling any hot oil
- Tool also allows the technician to pre-lube the oil filter before installation instead of running your finger with oil around the rubber seal before re-applying
- Instructions
- When reaching up into the engine bay, it is near impossible to have a view of the threads on both the oil filter and plug tool.
- We recommend turning counter clockwise until you feel the thread entry point line up.
- This is the moment when you feel a small drop in the counter clockwise turn.
- Once aligned, begin to turn clockwise at a slow rate to insure proper engagement with the threads.
- Note that this is common practice among many technicians, when threads are not visible.
- Interchange: Lisle 57180
