Folks,

I'm trying to do my first oil change on my JH since acquiring it this past summer.

The engine is newly rebuilt, but I don not know the history of oil changes since the rebuild.

The problem i'm having is removing the drain plug!  I've tried a breaker bar and impact wrench with no success.

Looking at the plug.  There appears to be a black seal, and what looks like blue or green locktite.  I'll say this, its never leaked!  But i'd rather be able to remove it and deal with a leak than the situation I have now.

Any suggestions as to how to remove the plug?  A torch maybe?  Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Ross
