Re: Lower unit drain plug

I’ts been a long time since I saw one of those, but I remember them. Sometimes a new allen wrench will help, because a used one will often times have wear on the corners causing it to slip. Maybe even try a metric size, as it may tap in with a small hammer.Otherwise you could probably drill it in the center, then use a square fluted style extractor. They work much better than the spiral easy outs. The good news is, that it’s probably not in that tight.
If it were me, I would avoid having to tap new threads… try to extract the drain plug and save the threads.
