Re: Oil plug stripped threads (2001 Escape)........

You can get away with the push plug, they gave you the "wrench" for it? I've had them last for years on one car. The right way is to thread it like you mentioned. I still think that Midas did a gorila job when they changed your oil the last time. Unfortunately most places hire kids to do oil changes and they are trained on YOUR car.
