oil pan messed up thread
here's my problem. i noticed on my oil pan where you bolt the drain plug has thread thats messed up. becuase of that, the drain plug bolt dosent tighten completely causing a little bit of leakage. i was thinking about putting some silicon around the bolt to stop the leaking until next oil change and was wondering if you guys had any other ways to fix this besides changing the oil pan. should i buy a kit and re thread the pan? any cheap, more permanant fix it advice would be helpful, thanks
