Just to clarify... http://www.delorean.co.uk/coolant_drain.jpg (Dave, you're welcome to have this in the tech section) Don't want you pulling oil drains :-) BTW when you turn it over, you will inevitably get a dribble here and there - I find a flattenned cardboard box does a good job of soaking up any drips As for drain plug tools - the 8mm square key is common to a lot of French cars and the tools are quite easy to get here. Any set of socket-style tools will have an 8mm in it. I got one from Teng, lost it, then got one from Snap-On which I like because it has a 19mm head.
