[DML] Re: Oil plug

[Travis Graham <tgraham@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm sure someone has mentioned this before, but there is an easy  
solution to dealing with the square-pegged OEM oil drain plug for  
every oil change: just replace it with a typical six-sided plug.  I  
think I did this the first time I changed the oil in my car and I've  
only needed a 17mm wrench since.

You can get one pretty much anywhere - I think it's just an NPT  
plug.  It's not original, but it's a lot easier.

Of course, you'll have to get the original plug out before you can  
enjoy the benefits of the new one.  I don't remember that part being  
a problem though.
