[Spridgets] Datsun drain plug

[Bill L.]

Hello Mike,


      Fill hole is easy enough, BUT.. I couldn't get enough leverage
      to loosen the plug. It's aluminum on aluminum and felt galled.
      It wasn't but I had to take it to a shop, have them put it on
      lift and they used a 3' cheater on a wrench to budge it. I was
      afraid they would destroy something, but it all worked out.
      You'll want some sort of pump for the gear lube to get it go up.
