Hey Gang, been really quiet lately and a fly on the wall. Well it looks as though the yoyo's at a oil-change place over-tightened my oil plug as the guys this weekend had to use incredible force to undo it and the threads fell off from the engine side. They chased it with a tap again to clean it up but it drips oil now. I need to get this fixed. Any advise other than tapping a larger diameter one it its place?
Cheers, bruce '85 Westy '99 A6 Avant Victoria, BC, Canada, truly a Westy ;-) |
