Default Removing oil galley plug

....or damage the ring gear which is just ahead of the plug ;( I didn't have
it with me last night, so I really don't know if I can get "straight on" the
plug to use the impact driver. Yep, it's 3/16".

I've considered the hand impact driver as I actually own one, but I'm
tentative due to the aluminum case. Any positive/negative experiences?


The impact driver isn't going to hurt the case but the lack of control
from a swinging hammer just might cause you to strip out the hex in a
situation where a wrench handle in knowledgeable hands, wouldn't.

What is the hex key size? 3/16 inch?
