Oil drain plug

I stand by what I said. I changed the equation. The new drain plug was not strong enough for that much torque and I failed to pick up on that before installation.

I further believe that if you have a Honda, you use only Honda parts on the major mechanical stuff. You wouldn't think a drain plug falls in that category but it does.

Whether the "Dimple" is alloy or not I couldn't say but the red flag should have been it's size. The head on it is only 13mm, the original is 17mm and much more massive looking.
