Oil sump plug

Forums

The oil plug on my ES2 sump has been stripped by previous owner. Any suggestions for repair/replacement. Helicoil or longer thread to plug?

Helicoil or other replacement thread insert device would be the best idea. I have seen them done without stripping the engine down before but you will have to be very careful about getting all the swarf out of the engine.

Thanks Ian. Confirms whatI thought.
