The new stud and nut came in the mail today and the problem is fixed  :woohoo:

Luckily the threads in the crankcase weren't stripped. I just dremeled off the stuck nut, got the stud out with vise grips, screwed the new stud in with some threadlock, and put on the new nut. This time I  put some grease on the oil filter O ring to make sure it stayed in place when I installed the cover. Definitely won't forget to do that in the future  :icon_mrgreen:

Thanks again for all the tips, I keep learning more about my GS on this forum  :icon_mrgreen:

Good --- Glad you got it  all fixed up.

How'd you keep all that molten metal  flinging off from the dremel from burning your  garage down? :icon_mrgreen:

When the 2nd Amendment is lost, the rest will soon follow.
