3. INSTRUCTIONS
3.1.
To repair a damaged drain plug thread first establish the thread size of the damaged plug then
choose a tap that is slightly larger than the existing thread.
3.2.
Mount the tap in a suitable tap wrench and lightly oil it.
3.3
Introduce the tap into the damaged sump hole ensuring that it enters in line with the hole. Rotate the
tap until it begins to bite then advance it a half turn and back it off by a quarter turn.
3.4.
As thread cutting proceeds periodically remove the tap and clean it to prevent a build up of metal
shavings being deposited in the sump.
3.5.
Proceed until the tap is running freely in the hole then remove it.
3.6.
Fit the appropriate sump plug and washer and tighten.
3.7.
After the next use of the vehicle check that the plug and washer are oil tight.
