Oil drain plug seal
by Dennis Valdez 26 May '16

26 May '16

Hi guys and ladies, Is it ok if I ask a question not about the POCA website or the BOD or copyrights etc.? (Sorry just kidding!) Anyway, I changed the engine oil and ZF lube this last weekend. I discovered that my oil drain plug had been seeping. It had a plastic washer on it so I changed to a copper one. I tightened it as tight as I dare but it still seeps a bit. Is there a torques spec for this somewhere? Any ideas on how to get a tight seal? Thanks, Dennis

Dear Nolan, The Dawg typically prefers the Team Pantera Racing forum. You have a good chance of finding him there. Where have you been? Long time, no emails? Welcome back, Chuck Engles PS: It is true, there is not larger force in the racing or ranting world today that Dennis Antenucci... -----Original Message----- From: DeTomaso [mailto:detomaso-bounces@server.detomasolist.com] On Behalf Of Nolan Sent: Wednesday, May 25, 2016 6:50 PM To: DeTomaso(a)server.detomasolist.com Subject: [DeTomaso] There is no larger driving force in the U.S. Open Road Racing circuit today, than Dennis Antenucci. This is a test. I was thinking about Dennis and wondering if my email to the list would bounce. Just think of Mad Dawg hammer down towards the fire extinguishers! http://www.ws6.com/image/aw01.gif Has anyone seen or heard from Mad Dawg lately? I still grin at memories of me & my nephew going on our "Kicking the Dawg" road trip many years ago. John Parson's had sold me the engine out of his Pantera https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8RJLPlWEsI Along the way we got to meet MANY Pantera people from this list that came and said hello. Laurie Ferrari , Mad Dawg, Sweet Old Bill, Mike Drew, Tom Dupart.... What an amazing group; of friends we have here/ Thanks to all of you for the great memories.

Hi All, I joined POCA and this forum back in 2008 when I purchased my Pantera. I had a serious problem with my car a few days before the car was to be transported to California and under the recommendation of my friend Hugh Casey I was introduced to this very active forum. I sent an email to the forum and within minutes guys from all over the world were rifling suggestions on things to check in the engine. I continue to tell everyone about the special comradery this group has . When I entered my car to drive across the USA in the Gumball3000(Santa Monica,CA to Miami Beach,FL) ,one member( Dennis "Mad Dawg" Antenucci) picked my son and I up at our hotel and drove us to PI Motorsports in Orange CA. Once the car was ready he then followed us and invited us into his home for dinner to make sure we were both ok and that the car could make the drive across the country. What club do you know would do that for a fellow member. The answer is none. This club has a special bond among members and that is the bottom line. When we started our Rally across the country the forum came together when we had an issue in Vegas. Once again a fellow member(Ralph Granchelli) helped us out and invited us into his home for repair. The Space City Pantera Club then helped us in Houston bring a/c to our car for the first time in 20 years. We had a club member meet us in every city we entered. This is a special club not only for Panteras but also for Friendship and I stress Friendship. What ever the issue is, I am confident it will be resolved peacefully.

It's also possible the drain hole may be cracked, allowing some seepage. I have a stock radiator with a similar issue (not being used).

Answer: Like the former SCOTUS, this one splits 5 to 4. It would help if their mtg minutes were posted on their new web site, POCA.com, for all paid members to see simply because secrecy breeds what we see here.
