Dear colleagues, is there any good alternative for a, perhaps, oversized drain oil sump plug?
My motorcycle’s drain plug threads were at some point worn since I bought my bike a long time ago. No oil plug can do the job there and the alternative solution was to use a regular similar screw but longer, that actually does the job, but I never dare to tight it because the engine material where the threads are, is soft.
I would like to know if there would be a better solution that one of you would recommend.
thank you for tips, and have a nice weekend,
Ed
