Leaking Oil
Hey guys. My car is leaking oil from the screw. Do anyone know where I can buy the screw that can make the existing hole bigger? If that makes any sense. Thanks.

You mean the drain plug? How about buying a new washer for it!

??? I just learned to torque it properly. there is no need to reef on it to tighten it. I (on my old motor) still have teh original washer. It made it 200k with out ever leaking a drop.
