How in hell did you get a grip on that plug with channel locks?
Mine sits flush with the motor and I use a washer in the slot with a screwdriver through the hole in the washer.

A 1/2 inch FENDER WASHER padded with a rag is the tool to have. The same tool does the rear gears filler plug too. A lot of us change the gear oil when we change engine oil, or every other time. But it is wise to check it each time you do engine oil.
