ok, today i was doin some work on my car and had to drain the coolant. I tried taking a screw driver to it but it felt like i was gonna round the screw so i got a socket wrench and pulled it out. IT WAS PLASTIC!!! Who the hell puts a plastic screw in for a drain plug?!?! it just doesn't make sense. So when I went to go fill it back up I went to put the plug in and yep, you guessed it, it snapped when I was snuggin it down. I wasn't even pulling that hard! Now I am up shit creek, and have to make a trip to the garage that I was trying to avoid in teh first place. damnit. ghead
Why would you use a wrench at all?
It's made so you can simply use your hand/fingers.
Now you've just given yourself a trip to the deal for a new plug.
I think you should change the subject to your post to something more "applicable"
