Craftsman Tecumseh engine - Oil drain plug doesn't come off, any solutions?
Original Message   Feb 24, 2007 6:01 pm
Here is the type on gas snlowblower that I have.  I bought it new a few months ago and this is the 1st time I am trying to change the oil.  The problem that I am having is that the oid drain plug will not turn loose from the metal rod behind it.  The metal rod turns as the oil drain plug turns so there is no way I can remove the oil drain plug.  Any suggestions?  Any help would be appreciated!

here is my snowblower
