Re: IML: stripped oil pan drain



Hi Robin,
They do make oversize drain plugs that actually cut new threads as you're installing them. I would try that first before going through the work of removing the oil pan.

Subject: IML: stripped oil pan drain


Any brilliant ideas on a quick fix for a stripped oil pan drain? I changed oil yesterday and the plug felt weird going in and would not tighten.It now just turns with a wrench but seems to be holding although there is a small leak. Guess the pan has to come off.
