Title: Looking for my oil drain plug
Post by: RavnMonster on August 11, 2008, 06:06:09 PM
05 S4R, there are a few possibilities but I want to make sure I am pulling the right one. I just tried to undo one and snapped my allen head off. before I go monkeying with it more i figured Id ask  you guys first.

Can someone point to it in a pic or describe it?

thanks

Not sure the size of yours, but mine takes a 10mm hex. I usually use a 1/2 breaker bar to loosen it--counter clock-wise.  [thumbsup]

Wow, that's good.

When I clicked on the link for the thread I thought you meant looking for oil drain plug as in you'd lost it while out riding.

Glad everything's okay.

Did you take them out of my bike?  You son of a pregnant dog.  That's why it won't start.
