Drain plug
Posted: Sat Mar 07, 2009 11:33 pmI went to change my oil drain plug is spinning freely and wont come out. I thought about an extractor bit but idk if that would work since it would just spin.

Posted: Sun Mar 08, 2009 12:06 amid just get a new oil pan from the yard and call it a day but yea really i think those are the only two options have you tried pulling while twisting maybe it might catch and get itself out there
Posted: Sun Mar 08, 2009 1:05 amYea i tried it but no luck. I guess ill just take the pan off and see if i cant get it out. Thanks alot guys.
Posted: Sun Mar 08, 2009 1:32 amWhen I drained the oil for the first time on this car I discovered the threads had been repaired with a helicoil. Some quicklube shithead must've zapped the plug in with an impact or somehing.

Posted: Sun Mar 08, 2009 8:47 pmnope, just the oil pan gasket and pick up a tube of hondabond for a sure seal in the corners
