Size of ATX Drain Plug tool needed (1998 LX protege)?
 

Hi,

What is the tool needed to remove the ATX drain plug on a 1998 Protege LX (if size of engine matters its the smaller engine, 1.5L I believe)?

I *think* it's a rather big allen wrench but can't be sure (very poor viewing angle while crawling around on the garage floor!)

Also - is there a special metal gasket/seal I will have to replace when I re-install the drain plug?

10 mm allen socket. It has a copper washer you should replace .
