2001 Mustang GT Oil Caps, cam or screw in type?
Need to know and I don't have my 2001 Gt here to look at now. Do the 01 4.6L Gt's have a cam or screw-in type of oil cap? Need to know to order a new cap.
Thanks

My first and final post in this forum, Never mind about my question above. Obviously this is not the forum to ask about anything to to do with late model Mustangs. :-(

You only gave 9 hours for people to reply? 9 hours which for the most part, is the time of day that 90% of the people are at work?
What the hell is a cam oil cap? Damn near every car I've looked under the hood of had a screw in oil cap.

Your reply shows your ignorance. Can't talk without using rude language. A cam type oil cap is one that screws in but clicks when all the way down and does not tighten down. Get a bit of education before making a a know it all reply! Many cars have a cam type oil filler cap including some Fords.

So... then who cares? there's not going to be a whole hell of a lot of pressure, you know thanks to the PCV valve, under the cam cover. Just get a regular oil cap for it. Or you know you could have called a Ford dealership. But I guess using common sense when needing a quick answer isn't your style?

Sorry for my above testy reply yesterday. Had a really bad day. My 01 Bullitt Mustang was in the shop and I had a chance to buy a nice billet aluminum oil cap but could not remember if mine was a screw on or a camed oil cap. Needed to know by 7pm yesterday and calling my local Ford dealer and asking a simple question about oil caps is impossible. I'm surprised they know what a Ford is.
