[QUOTE="biglou, post: 623849"] If the case isn't cracked around the hole, then a heli-coil or, better still, a "time-sert" will do the job. I forget which metric size it is, but my buddy's 99RM250 needed new threads and I got a hot tip that a 1/2-20 was just a shade bigger with the same thread pitch (threads per inch) as the metric threads. $3.50 for a magnetic drain plug from NAPA and he was good to go. Tapping, re-tapping or using a threaded insert isn't that big of a deal. Way better than a new case half for sure. The expandable rubber plug idea sounds pretty good, too. [/QUOTE]
