Stripped thread on sump
«

Undoing the sump plug to do an oil/filter change and I could see some threads on the sump plug. Drained the oil and checked the sump and sure enough the sump has stripped some threads and the plug won't tighten back into the sump tray.
I've called the thread doctor and he can't do it this week and I'm not confident in getting a heli coil kit and trying it myself. Does anyone know of anyone nr Basingstoke that can help out?

Hi nath, might be easier buying a second hand sump, easy enough to swap, the only down side is you'll have to take the downpipes off.......sump should be cheap though....

Cheers for your reply
I've got the thread wizard from Southampton coming out on Thursday morning, so fingers crossed it'll all be good then.
I did think of a used one but as there's only 2 on ebay I didn't want to take the chance they'd need doing as well. Yamaha said there's none in Europe and it'd take two weeks at £160.
The thread guy is £70 all in in case anyone needs it for future reference.
