Subject: Re: Stuck oil drain plug


First of all an impact wrench should never be used to tighten the oil pan drain-plug. Large enough Vise-Grips should do the job but it's best & safest to have it on a hoist. Have you thought about taking it back to the place that last changed the oil? If it's a legit place then they'll remove the drain plug & buy you a new one. Mark "Well, the last guy who changed my oil must have used an impact wrench on the drain plug, because I've only been able to strip the head in my attempts to turn it with a 13mm socket, and then a 1/2" socket, and then a pair of Vise-Grips. Any recommendations other than taking it to the dealer? Car is a 1995 900 S 4-cyl, if that matters. -- =A0=A0agreenbu Return to Main Index
