Nows your opportunity to put in a drain valve, so you never have to unscrew
anything. There some nice brass drain valves available, like petcocks, and
there is at least one that I use on my Cummins diesel, which is almost
flush, and has a drain piece with a hose on it that screws into the new
fitting to open the valve.

The Best is FREE! http://click.topica.com/caaaecxb1dfltb2MIZva/Teleconferencecalls.com ============================================================ I recently changed the tranny oil on my Ambo. When replacing tranny drain plug screw it just kept turning. It seems it has been stripped for a time. I did notice that not much oil came out of the tranny when I drained it, only about half a quart but it was pretty clean. How can I fix this stripped drain screw problem? Should I put in a time sert/thread repair insert? Or should I retap the drain hole to a larger ize and put in an oversized drain plug? Also, do you use Blue Locktite on these plugs? Thanks.
