as for the oil drain pan, I got mine at wally world for around $8. I really like it as it is big enough to catch the filter also. You can seal it up, put it in a garbage bag and stick it in the back of my suv. I return it to walmart to drain it as they have free oil recovery up to 5 gallons. I learned the hard way not to put it back in the quart containers.
As for the drain plug, I just grab it, before I have unscrewed it all the way, with my fingers, not really that hard
. I didnt spill a drop. Might be a little more drama if your oil is hot.
I unscrewed the fron pour spout and didn't do the top round thingy. you get more flow with the spout off. Just screw the spout back on before you move it.
