Fumoto drain plug question
I'm thinking about installing a Fumoto drain plug on my 03 wrx, but I have that wire for my oil gauage attached to the drain plug.
Any suggestions? Please help. Thanks.

the only thing I can think of is that you'll have to tap another hole into your oil pan and somehow weld the oil temp wire there...
I don't think you can fit the wire into the fumoto valve, but I could be wrong...

I ran into this exact same dilemma with my factory 3-gauge pack with oil temperature sender in the drain plug. I decided that the ease of draining oil was worth more to me than the factory gauge that doesn't even register during light load and cooler weather. I just secured the wire with nylon ties out of the way but left it hooked up to the gauge.
