I don't think you could get an M14x1.5 plug even 1/2 turn into a 1/2-20 threaded hole, but *maybe* if both male and female have generous lead-in chamfers. M14 is 0.551", 10% larger in diameter than 1/2". And the 1.5 pitch, easier to do this metric; 20 TPI is a pitch of 1.27 which also isn't very close. A caliper will tell the tale.</div><div><br></div><div>SO</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Sep 30, 2019 at 10:07 PM Cecil Bearden <<a href="mailto:crbearden@copper.net">crbearden@copper.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

<p>This is one of my parts getter vehicles for the old tractors. <br>

<p>My 2017 Grand Caravan oil plug rounded off with a 6 point socket.
I have no idea how the plug could get so tight running, but I
changed the oil the last time myself and did not over tighten the
plug. I rounded the head of the plug off with an impact socket.
Had to borrow a pair of Knipex alligator pliers from a friend to
get it loose. He had to use both hands and push against the tire
to get it broke loose. I got a replacement from O'reilly auto
parts. It stated the plug was a M14x1.5 However it will not screw
in 1/2 turn before it freezes up. I put in the old plug as I had
no choice. The mopar number is MOPAR 6506214AA but this crosses
over to the M14 x 1.5 plug that I had. A thread on the earlier
generation models stated that some had a 1/2 -20 threaded plug as
it had not changed over to metric completely. Anyone had this
experience??</p>
