Well, I must be the biggest idiot in the world...tried to use my new torque wrench on the oil drain plug before I really knew how it worked. I am pretty sure that I have stripped the threads on my oil pan. Of course I had to see if it leaked, so I filled the engine up with $30 of Mobile 1 just to make sure I was a fool. Is there any kind of quick fix to this? I know i have heard of thread repair kits before. I am cursing the whole world right now. Please help.
