Mike: Maybe tefflon tape will do... Erick Faith '90 westy "elke" San Jose, Costa Rica (Central America) -----Mensaje original----- De: Richmond Mike [mailto:keepongrowin@HOTMAIL.COM] Enviado el: Wednesday, 06 November , 2002 10:10 AM Para: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Asunto: What to do with a stripped drain plug?
I've got a problem that I'm sure everybody has delt with at some point in their lives. Last time i changed the oil the engine was really hot. i had to reuse the crush ring and unforunately stripped the casing a small bit. 3000 miles later not a drop has leaked and it's time again to change. how should I handle this? I went to get more crush rings from the dealer this morning and was told I'd have to replace the pan! errghh! I'm not too sure about that. Any suggestions? Thanks! -Mike
