37972, oil near drain plug
Posted by SILVERNT, Nov-23-02 06:03 PM
just what the title says, its only a drip after i shut off the car. its only near the plug, i checked further up, (oil pan gasket, head gasket) and its not that far up, only around the plug. do you think i just need a new gasket for the plug?

Yep... if you're sure that it's not coming from anywhere else (oil filter)...
