Lightweight crankcase drain plug

Post by derek cox7 »

Morning all, first question placed on forum, hope someone can help? went to change the oil on a recently aquired 1966 model 14 to have the drain plug fall out into my hand, it had cunningly been inserted with the aid of PTF tape. anyone done a repair in this field, other than the obvious Heli fix, many thanks Derek.

Auto suppliers have a range of slightly oversize self tapping sump plugs. Take yours in as a sample.If you find something suitable put some grease on it to catch the small amount of debris.
