If you don't wanna drill, then just an ordinary tap would do as long as it is slightly larger than the hole. You're still gonna have issues with metal getting into the sump, though. You're also going to be back at square one with yet more threads made of super soft aluminum and ready to ruin your weekend. I'd be careful too with tapered plugs: too tight and you could shatter the sump. If I ever had to do this again on a twinny I think I'd drill and coil, but make sure I cut the coil to length first without distorting it. Maybe with a disc cutter, because snips inevitably distort it and make it harder to fit. I'd be sure to use a new crush washer too! ![]() I'm going with this. The M22 one, I hope it its what I think it is... http://www.astatools.tw/product/m13-m15-m17-m20-m22/ The car is leaking both Oil and coolant at the moment, I cant keep up with it ![]() -------------------- Can I start again?
