Please, I know its tractor talk, but this is where I reach most of my YT friends that are experts in all areas mechanic. Well, YT friends, redtom is in the dog house. Daughter has a nice 2011 Honda CRV we helped her find used. I did her first oil change because why pay some place to do it! Well, the threads all came out of the aluminum pan with the plug. So I ordered a Lisle brand rethreading plug kit, a rather nice outfit. I had to get a right angle drill. The kit is exactly what you think it is. A drill, a tap, and plugs. I did it and sent her on her way. Only to find the plug drips. Well the drill bit has a pilot but is only as good as your hand while on your back. Come to find out I tapped it just crooked enough to angle the sealing surface. So today I filed the sealing face to try to match my angle. Its improved but still a drip. So, heres my dilemma tighten it until it almost strips or put on a new pan (yuck). The plugs in the kit come with thick nylon washers on them. Anyone have any experience with this kind of replacement. I'm OCD about this and she's even more so....why me?

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
