I put in a drain 0lug for my transmission pan.
Drill a hose, two nylon washers and tighten it type. 1/8 npt drain plug.
To be expected, it leaks.
Around the npt plug?, around the nylon gasket?, I don't know.
Anyone ever have any luck with these things?
I tried a couple different npt plugs, they barely fit. The one that came with the kit bottoms out.

The plug that came with it bottoms. Other, better plugs barely start. Perhaps I do need to run a tap into it a bit.
Good idea, thank you.
The transmission is drained, not a big deal to try.
What new gasket material would you try for the part in the pan? A plain washer with crush washers on either side, Rubber inner tube, thick hard gasket roll stuff?
