Finally got the sludge trap plug out. This was an SOB to get out. It took 10 minutes with the BFH and the impact to turn it 360°. Another 5 or so to get the next 360° and then I put the 1/2" air impact to get it the rest of the way. Plug is pretty beat up from previous work. I'm surprised this bike had so much work done before my brother bought it 2 years old in 72. The plug looks as though the "stake" was drilled out with a too large bit, but in the plug, that is being replaced, and not the wheels. I don't know why this plug needs to be staked when it is so freaking tight going in it needs serious impact tools to remove. The replacement plug is an allen and not a slot.
