OK, Friday evening I was going to change the oil in my tractor. This is only the second time that I have had to change it since I have owned it. Obviously who ever owned it before me did not have the right tools to work with because the head of the oil pan drain plug had been rounded off, like someone had use a standard size wrench when it actually needed a metric wrench. So here is my problem. As I started to loosen the drain plug I could not get any size wrench to fit it, so what happened is the head is now really rounded off and I can not get anything to turn it. I even resorted to the dreaded vice grips in hopes to just get the dang thing out and replace it. So no I am stuck with a drain plug i can not get out!!! I need home help in figuring out how to get the drain plug out. I have used ease outs before, but i am not sure if this will work here. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!!! /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif
