Oil filter plug

[Don W.]

What magic tool do I need to get the square-drive plug out of the oil filter so I can have an oil pres ga? Something metric?

Re: Oil filter plug

regular set of plug sockets will take it right out. I've also used a square head bolt on occasion and I've also used the head of a tap from time to time.

Harbor Freight has a complete set of drain plug sockets for like $5

You will need a 5/16" or 8MM socket drive. You can read additional info on this in my post here.
