I know it's been discussed.
I searched and never found the one or two threads I remember and tried Google too.
If anyone posted or remembers the threads discussing the drain plug on the injector pump of a Lehman 120 and can point me in the right direction thank you.
Mine stripped yesterday even with a slightly less than prescribed torque.
Maybe log ago damage. It snugs up by hand...but I am not satisfied that it will stay.
Anyone do this repair on engine?
Thinking just overdrill, tap and go to 3/8 24 bolt instead of the 5/16 24 bolt. Maybe use an o ring this time to lessen the temptation for a slightly harder turn for snugness.
Ideas or pointers to a thread that can help?
Thought helicoil but seems overkill for a sump drain.
