Since it is a disposable Ford Tempo(sorry),if the repair started to get expensive(more than $10) I would do this. Plug the drain hole with jb weld stick. Then get one of those oil pumps that go into the dip stick hole. Every now and then just stick that ole hose down the tube and pump out any oil that is in there.Jb will hold to the pan just fine.My first name is not Jerry , and my last name is not Rigg. You wouldnt know it my some of my postings though. |
