[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 638566, member: 4527"] Excellent question. I bottle it back and bring it out to a friendly garage when ever possible. The stupid drain plug is not easy to open.. I almost gave up because the top is too thin for my size 17 ring wrench (couldn't get a good bite) and too tight for my hex bit, I almost twisted and broke my hex bit. I abandon project on Saturday evening, half way doing the Astro installer come install PVR for me.. ka-ka-ciao-ciao. On Sunday, I jack the car higher and use a cold chisel to knock the drain plug to loosen it. Ideal tool to open the drain plus is this..
