Not being the best of mechanics I cross threaded the drain plug and put a hairline crack in my oil pan. With the skid plate in place it is difficult to get to. Any suggestions as to how to repair? It does slowly leak oil.Not enough to prevent use but it does require freqent checking.Thanks

You have to take your skid plate off to get to it. First drill two holes on the cases one at each end of the crack to prevent it from becomming larger. Two very small holes will work just fine. Then I'd just JB weld the crack. Worked great on my friends 200SX that I repaired for him, hasnt leakes since. I'd just tap the hole if the threads are messed up.
