i attempted to carry out a service on my hdi today, only find the sump plug had been partially stripped and would not fully tighten, is there any way of fixing this without changing the sump.
thanks

I wouldn't drill and tap the sump in situ, you'll end up with it full of swarfe.

Id use either fuel/oil proof sealant and/or ptfe tape till you can drop the sump and replace it.
