Ok, I have begun the rebuild of my salvaged 1976 TR6.  I removed the 
complete interior today, and drained the fluids.  When I drained the 
transmission, I had about 4 quarts of water come out before I even saw any 
fluid.  The water looked quite clean, however and didn't show any signs of 
rusting internals.  Once the fluid drained I tried to remove the fill plug, 
but to no avail.  The best fit seemed to be a 7/16 wrench but it kept 
slipping because the plug is in there so tight.  Does anyone have any ideas 
on removing the plug before I just drill it out?  Also, do you think the 
water in the tranny will hurt anything.  It has been in there for about 5 
weeks.  Thanks, for your help.
