What is Reddit's opinion of Dorman 65109 Universal Oil Drain Plug 1/2 In. To 3/4 In. Or M12 To M18?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

If you really want to go riding or something this weekend you can put in a temp rubber drain bolt, like this one, and then afterward like everyone else says put in a helicoil kit.

Just get a universal drain plug. They're like $10 on Amazon.

Drain Plug

Same principle as a drywall anchor.

Diagram

You fold the two "wings" over, insert them into the drain hole, they expand and grip into the bottom of the pan and the rubber stopper at the head seals everything.

Super simple & super cheap. Highly effective.

Some side notes:

1. Don't wait a full YEAR to have your oil changed.
2. Don't scrap a car because the oil pan is stripped (you may have to loosen the mounts, not replace them)
3. You can't even drive a rental if you're younger than 25 (I sincerely hope you're younger than 25).

It's one of these....so the pan most likely has stripped threads. They're not fun to deal with as they tend to eventually leak.
