The drain plug material is not too soft. What happens is the tool bit fit is very tight... MarcW - Monday, 23 January, 2012, at 3:34:26 pm	1,237
Good info. dghii - Monday, 23 January, 2012, at 3:45:55 pm	1,197
I think that's what the mechanic did in my car's case. He got the bit all the way in -- to avoid... MarcW - Monday, 23 January, 2012, at 5:44:28 pm	1,003
20/20 hindsight: shoot a little WD-40 on either the bit or into the plug's hex beforehand. *NM* Laz - Monday, 23 January, 2012, at 10:19:09 pm	1,096
Not sure I follow how WE-40 would have helped. dghii - Tuesday, 24 January, 2012, at 11:13:02 am	1,028
To help get the bit in and out without jamming, because it lubricates, at least temporarily. *NM* Laz - Tuesday, 24 January, 2012, at 11:21:06 am	967
It might help to chamfer the bit's end; or more than it might've been manufactured with. Laz - Tuesday, 24 January, 2012, at 12:07:26 pm	1,159
The tool bit has a light coating of oil. Lube can actually make the situation worse... MarcW - Tuesday, 24 January, 2012, at 2:26:41 pm	977
Good point, but I think WD-40 would be thin and permeable enough, especially if sparingly applied. Laz - Tuesday, 24 January, 2012, at 3:14:15 pm	1,109

20/20 hindsight: shoot a little WD-40 on either the bit or into the plug's hex beforehand. NM

To help get the bit in and out without jamming, because it lubricates, at least temporarily. NM

It might help to chamfer the bit's end; or more than it might've been manufactured with.
