Well, that didn't work. Let's try something else!
The drain plug on my 97 2.3L rounded when I tried to take it off (it was over tightened and took heat and vice grips to get it to finally break loose). I need to replace the drain plug, but I'm getting conflicting information on searches. Some say M14 x 1.5 and others say M12 x 1.5. Autozone seems to agree with M12 x 1.5, just want to make sure before I drive up there. I live out in the sticks so it's a 30 minute drive! Thanks!
