Default Mechanic for a simple job.

Hi CP,

I'm wondering if anyone knows a mechanic who could rethread a drain hole plug on my car, I could pay cash or beer. I'm driving to Edmonton, and really don't want to spend too much time/money in a shop as I'm getting a bit of maintenance done at a friends who is a heavy duty mechanic up there. I can provide supplies/rent parts (tap and dye) and get it done. Feel free to PM me any details, thanks!

Too bad you're not in Calgary. But depending on the car, I would replace the oil pan instead. Wait are you in Calgary?

It's a common problem, Canadian Tire or Napa sell a self taping drain plugs. They will tell you the best way to do it and not have metal fragment in your oil pan.
