Anyone know the specs on the drain plug for an A833? Looks like 1/2" pipe with a square head. I can't get mine out without welding something to it. Too badly chewed up. I love it when yard apes install pipe plugs. Thank you, Joe

Heat cycle it a few times, soaking in between with PB Blaster?

Small butane torch and you're good.
I recently had to replace the rear soft brake line.
Original part that's been on there over 25yrs.
It started rounding off (even with correct flared brake wrench) No way that was coming off.
Heat cycled it several times with PB Blaster and it broke loose.

I still need to know the size please. I'm guessing 1/2 npt...Thank you, Joe

If no one answers, send Brewers a question.
They are the go to for parts.

Brewers is who I contacted to see what fluid goes into it. That was before I discovered the fubared plug. I'll know what it is once I remove it. I was just trying to get ahead of the game....Joe
