Installing a drain plug is common but decide *where* to drill the hole after the pan is off

Neither does my 4.2 XK!

Unfortunately, it's my locally built Ford that has mild incontinence...

1. OK, but, the slick 4.2 car was just rejuvenated. Nice and fresh! Whilst the 5.7 in my Jaguar dates back to 1994. Original as far as I can tell.


2. My son's SOL has a "little" Ford of some type. At 150+ miles, it's beginning to fall apart electricaly. Just got a Transmission Control Module to fix a "fussy crank" issue??? Oh, plus crank position sensors,
cam position sensors and more....


In the meanwhile his big 94 Dodge Cummins powered 3/4 4x4 rattles on at circa 300 K!!!
