Are you serious? If you don't have any basic tools, then why are you trying to wrench on your bike!!

+1 on that, you should have a basic set of allen and torx wrenches or bits before you start working on the bike.

Drain plug on the primary is a 3/16"

Yeah...you guys are probably right, I should get some tools and learn how to "wrench on a bike". Thanks for the wrench size by the way.
