I was changing the oil in the '71 Squareback today and as I was putting everything back together one of the 6 studs used to hold the oil screen and plate on, stripped out of the case. I would guess this is a fairly common occurance (at least I *hope* it is...) and I was wondering if we can still use the car for a bit with just the 5 nuts on, or do we need to get it fixed ASAP? As for the fix, I imagine a helicoil would be the answer, but what size do I ask for? Also, please reply to dburden@mindspring.com since I think I've been un-subscribed from the list for some reason.
