The plug, which sits at the bottom or side of the oil pan,is charged with keeping your motor’s vital life blood — its lubricant —from pouring out due to the constant effects of both gravity and the pressurethat’s generated inside the crankcase.

There can be several reasons why your drain plug is leaking.Your plug may use a crush washer, a gasket or a combination of these twocomponents to help seal it. If the washer is missing or deformed or if thegasket has dried out or torn, then these may be responsible for the leak. It’salso possible that the plug was installed too tightly, causing the threads tobe damaged and oil to leak out past them.
