So i replaced the drain plug and washer and i still have a tiny leak dripping. Does anyine else know what it could be? The drip is right ilon the oil plug but since its new it cant be that.
Yes, it can. Take the plug out again (catch the fresh oil), clean the contact surface on the pan, put another new crush disc on it and retighten, then refill with oil.
only other thing it could be, is the threads have been previously stripped and someone just replugged it. only thing if a new crush washer doesnt work is to pull out the plug, drill retap and new plug. or helicoil and jb weld and new plug
Yeah its 25 yrs old i might as well get a new one. Thanks to all for the input
