BigMike,
Another possible solution to your pan problem is once you get the threads fixed use the quick drain system and you never have to remove the plug again, hence no chance of stripping the threads again. Roscoe has a picture of his I think if you can get him to post it. He has posted it before but it was some time ago and I can't find it. I don't have a picture of my drain but all you do is take the cap off, put the little drain hose on and as it screws onto the brass end, like a waterhose onto a faucet, it opens the valve and lets the old
oil out. Also much cleaner than messing with the drain plug and dropping it into the pan or having the hot
oil on your hands.
