drain plug problem

[MattTheBat83]

im pretty sure i cross threaded my drain plug now it leaks like crazy... any way to fix this?

Check with auto parts stores.
They all have larger threaded
plugs.

run a tap into it to fix the threads. i picked up a cheap set for like $6.00 for little jobs like that.

you can rent magnetized tap sets from autozone for like $45. as stated above tap it out for a bigger plug then install a new plug. i wouldnt recomened stripping a bigger plug into the existing hole. it might work might not, but i dont recomened it.
