Default Removing oil galley plug

Thanks for the offer, but I'm in Wisconsin. Getting anything "straight on"
to the plug is going to require pulling the front engine baffle, and even
then the ring gear may be in the way, so for now, it's going to wait while I
finish the rest of the install and collect more insight on the problem.

Yes, the plug is behind the starter gear for me. However, our A&P used
a 90 degree drill and had another guy put direct pressure on it, while
he ran the drill. I think the reason we failed the first time was that
we didn't put enough pressure on it. Not using enough pressure will
strip it quick.
