sm1960 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 My teenage son has watched me change the oil several times now in his truck. Over the weekend, he did it on his own and cross-threaded the plug. Options are the std over-sized self tapping plug, an over-size self tapping plug that has it's own inter plug(plug within a plug) or to replace the pan. On a 1988 K10, std cab, 4x4 with a 305 can you drop the pan without having to jack the engine? If so, is it as simple at changing a transmission pan? I've done the tansmision before, but not an engine oil pan. Thanks for all the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00Silverado4x4 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I think I would just go with an oversized self-tapping plug. Save dropping anything from under the engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
