Subject:slow drip from oil drain
From:Allan Streib
Date:Thu, 19 Mar 2009 17:54:15 -0400

After repairing my oil drain threads with a Time-Sert, and installing a
new drain plug and washer tightened to spec, I am still having a slow
oil leak.  Probably a couple of drops a day, give or take.

Has anyone used a paper gasket under the washer, or addressed this in
any other way?  Or could the leak possibly be coming from the case seam
itself?
