My heart skipped several beats the other day. Changed oil and filter as final prep for the trip. Came out in the morning to a few drops of oil on the ground. Nipped the sump plug up just a tad, then rode to work. Lunchtime; there was a huge oil slick under the bike

Long story short; the helicoil I have in the sump unscrewed just enough for the crush washer not to seal properly (thought the helicoil was cactus thus ending the weekend for me). I dumped the oil, reseated the helicoil and hey presto, I'm still going on the weekend .... Yippie!!!
