I bought a Votex, just waiting for 500-600 miles before I do my first oil change and install it.Anyone put a valvomax drain plug on a hurricane engine yet? I’m coming up to my first oil change and would live to install one with that change, but I’m not sure they sell one for the hurricane engine.
See post 1 and 15, there are other members responding also from what I recall.Does anyone know the drain plug torque by any chance. The online owners manual dont say anything about ot that i could find.

I don't know, and can't find it for the Hurricane, but don't exceed 35 ft/lbs. I know that's not much help, but I have a buddy who owns a shop and I'm going to ask him to look it up for me when I get a chance.Does anyone know the drain plug torque by any chance.

I don't think I have ever used a torque wrench on an oil pan drain plug, hell, any drain plug for that matter.Does anyone know the drain plug torque by any chance. The online owners manual dont say anything about ot that i could find.
Gotta make sure you have the high torque 1/2" impact. Not that wimpy 3/8"oneAt least 2 or 3 ugga duggas from the impact gun, 4 to be safe. I switched to a 17 mm plug so I can really hammer it and crush the washer

Anyone having oil sensor problems? Did first oil change. Filed as specified. Oil level indicator showed right at the correct level. A couple hundred miles later apparently some of the oil magically disappeared. Said add on quart. I added one quart. Oil level indicator didn't move. Added another quart, again nothing. At this point I am not adding another drop because if I blow the seals we all know Ram would point the finger at me and deny everything. I honestly have had enough of this truck. Like everyone else, love it when its actually right but why are we dealing with this stuff within the first few thousand miles. My truck was in the shop the first probably two months because they crushed the wire harness putting in the middle console which wrecked havoc with outlets and steering wheel lights. I truly regret buying it now. 2025 Ram 1500.
That's the same with mine. Dealer changed oil 1700 miles, it's right on full mark with claim of 7 Quarts on the dealer fill sheet and cost. I love this truck and hate it does not have a dipstick.mine sat at 1 bar below max from the factory and also after my first oil change.
Old school has always specified 20 Ft. Lbs on a mopar.Does anyone know the drain plug torque by any chance. The online owners manual dont say anything about ot that i could find.
