[QUOTE="Walter, post: 1223876, member: 87998"] there should be a crush washer there and even if the plug was up sized you can still find crush washers for what ever size. As long as the current plug with properly tighten and there is flat surface around the drain hole and the plug to match to compress properly a crush ring then it should seal. I really think you need to take the plug back out and measure it to check if it has actually been changed also asses the threads of the plug and the inside the pan. if the plug is original and all the threads are nice and clean then it is simply a crush washer issue.
