doing an oil change on the Senator today, along with the oil cooler themostat. Took the sump plug off, old filter ect..... drained the oil. Went to put the sump plug back in, a bit of the thread just fell out of the sump

Felt funny putting it in, started to tighten ok. But then it just spins

Its on finger tight at the moment, and is a steady leak

After a long run, and stopped. It dripps about 3 times a min, it then slows down. Done about 60 miles or so, its not gone down on the dip stick as far as i can see, but a sizable patch of oil on the road where it was parked.
Bloody typical, simple thing buggers up!

Not got the time or tools to fix it (tap sets) halfords had opps all above M12, going to have to bite the bullet and take it anyway around Europe, but just keep topping it up and watch the pressure gauge.
The nut is still tight to the finger.
