Oil plug saga remedy.

[SuffolkD at aol.com]

Thanks to all for the drain plug techniques.
Fortunately, penetrating oil and driving around for a day (heat cycled)
seemed to cure the frozen bolt.
I only needed a foot long wrench to get the plug out.
It also seemed that the "Huskey" socket will exercise its lifetime warranty.
It has a fracture crack on the side that opens up under torque.
Maybe preventing all the torque from getting to the plug yesterday.
