Striped out drain plug :(
Douche bag kid at Walmart said they wouldn't do my oil drain plug after I raised a concern about replacing it.
I figured some idiot might have messed up a few threads but later when I went and did the oil change myself I found the threads of the actual hole came out in pieces with the drain plug.
Later when I went to replace it the drain plug wouldn't tighten up much at all.
Probably a mere foot pound.
Anyways, having no choice I left it in Gods hands and I had a new drain plug that had a better looking seal so I ended up slapping it on but still the threads were the same so it is not tight at all.
Drove it back home and it wasn't leaking at least I couldn't see any drips at that point.
Im going to go check in the morning and hope there isn't 5.5 quarts of 5w-20 Fully synthetic laying under my car.
Does anyone have any thoughts on how I should fix it?
Options include but are not limited to,
-Using that Mobile 1, 10k mile oil next time and just lock tightening what remains of the threads.
-Cut new threads and increase the size of my drain plug.
(just not sure how to keep metal shavings from sticking around and damaging the engine)
-Get a new drain pan.
-Buy the exact same car and replace all of my car onto the new cars drain pan.
Looking to put it on my current computer once I get my new one built so that I can transfer the Windows 10 key.

Is this a scam?
I got distracted and didn't buy it then I remembered to buy it so I clicked on it and it has been taken down.

Is this a scam?
I just read and reread the money back guarantee and I will be covered by it even if this listing is a scam.
They only shit part is that my money might be tied up for a month until I receive the scam processor (or lack there of) and can take the appropriate action to get my refund.
Best case scenario someone stole some okayish processors and just wanna make a quick buck.
IDK if it is a scam or not but I do have some extra money right now and with all honesty even though I do not want this processor it will satisfy me long enough to actually save some for something better.
It is better than the no processor I have in that case right now.

This is not the cpu I would have even given any thought too but it is very cheap.
By cheap I mean it is a good deal compared to what the price is on other sites.
And at this point in my build I really just wanna throw something together already and press the power button.
If this is real I am gonna feel silly having a dvd drive that costs over half what my cpu costs.

Don't take the vaccine!
It isn't even really a vaccine and they know it.
And empty syringe and the plunger does even move.
Well it has been 4 days so far and I got to say I really enjoy the keyboard and mouse.
The mouse has a special button to adjust the sensitive which makes it a breeze when playing different types of games or doing different stuff.
I am still trying to figure out the backlighting on the keyboard.
I know which buttons to press but all the options keep doing this fade in and fade out thing that kind of makes me feel a certain way.
All in all I give it a 10/10 because my step son got me it and he is a good man I tell ya what.
But you stupid DHers still won't tell me how it makes sense paying for all that shit and also investing my time in setting it up vs just doing what I already did and buying Ms. Pac-man on Steam.
Also, keep in mind that my gf is the one trying to play games and she is not very tech savvy.
Im not even going to try and explain to her how to do what you just suggested.
Thank you for all the help folks.
I did it completely without you but I am glad I got to know what some idiots would do so I could make sure I didn't.
