: I pulled the oil pan to fix 2 things, the leaking gasket, and to tap the oil plug, I took out the plug to drain it, and out came most of the threads. What should I tap it too?
: I was thinking 9/16" or 5/8" with 20 threads / in.
: That sound good? I tried to tap it to the original 1/2", but too much had come out, and the bolt wouldn't thread tight.
: Am I right about the 20 t/i? I think that was what the original was.
You'll want to go with 9/16 X 18,and You'll need a 33/64 drill bit to clean up the hole
