I have my transmission apart on the bench and I can't get the drain plug out? I'm not sure if I should use heat or not; out of fear of melting the case? What do you guys think? A little heat with the propane or get glowing with the oxy?
Thanks' Jon |

I sprayed liquid wrench, tried it, no go. Did that every time (once a day at least) I walked by the tranny which was out on a bench, third day it came by hand, no power tools or breaker bars, no damage.
