I just tried to change my oil for the first time since buying my 97 Outback in January....the oil plug is stripped and I couldn't get it out. I imagine that I will begin (or continue) slowly losing oil. I'll keep checking my level, but what is the best solution?
I've heard of rubber plugs, drilling a hole for a larger plug, and full oil pan replacement. I'd like to go for something cheap/effective, so the first two seem most appealing. I searched around for a little information but I was hoping for some Subaru-specific tips, or any general advice.
Thanks, Thomas
