Drain Plug Solutions

[SILENT]

Hey I Guys here's my story I've recently purchase my SEI about 3 months ago and it has a serious stripped oil pan... Ive purchase to universal 5/8 rubber drain plugs and they suck ass... but I do not have the money to buy a oil pan right now... So i was wondering if anyone has a suggestion of a good universal drain plug... Ive heard of some alligator thing but I really don't know if that is what its really called because when I as ppl about they look @ me like im a dumbass... if someone has come across one please send me the link or name!!! I Need 1 ASAP

try that rubber one with some blue rtv or some teflon tape to tighten the threads

I sent you a pm earlier when I couldn't open the thread...

Autozone sells a replacement pan for like $65. It doesn't clear the a/c compressor very well, but it will fit with some finagling.

I would go that route. I just battled the same shit, and oil pan replacement was the only way to fix it. Car was leaving a big puddle with brand new plug and washer.

Why not try the junkyard?

Maybe JBweld one of these onto your current pan?

Yeah on the cheap welding a nut to the outside of the hole is about the only thing I could think of.

65$ for an oil pan that seems kinda cheap are you sure you can get one from them?

Not sure if you will read this since the thread is now kinda old
