92 Flstc..anyone heard of a primary drain plug "blowing out? Mine did and it took out the internal thread section...baffled ???

 

Probably the threads were stripped by overtightening it and that's why it came out. Drill the hole out to the next size and re tap the threads. They were a tapered thread origionally (NPT) so it's easy for someone to overtighten it and strip it out. You can tap it and use a standard allen head bolt with a copper sealing washer on it.

 

What he said .....

Or if you have some threads left you can use a primary plug from S&S which is fully threaded and worked on mine.

 

Going with an allen..Ive laways hated the torx heads...Thanks.

 

Well,it was ok...after putting it up on a lift,it had fallen out.The book says to torque by specs,which I dont remember,but I put a new one in and ignored what the manual said,but used mucho teflon tape and screwed it all the way in....tight.just as our local dealer advised....we,ll see.

 

I use high temp lock tight.

 

If the hole could be dried good enough,I suppose loc tite would work but only the blue.
