I need to change the oil and filter
anyway , so I'll be able to check it all while I've got it open .

The oil level on my older version is higher than the pan. So oil will
start to run out soon as you crack the seal. Before I installed a drain
plug I would loosen the bolts such that it would come loose at a
strategic corner with a large catch pan located there. Even after some
leaks out into the pan the darn thing is heavy with oil. It was always
a MESS, hence adding a drain plug


Â* How did you install that drain plug ? I was thinking about TIG
welding a bung in , but am concerned that it'll warp .
