I changed the oil recently in my newly acquired mower and I was able to unscrew that entire quick change assy. Not at all good!
I cleaned it up, put Teflon tape on the threads, an aluminum washer that typically goes on oil drain plugs, and screwed it back in. That's when I discovered I couldn't get a wrench on it to turn it enough to tighten up the washer.
I got this 3/8 drive 15/16" crowfoot, did a little grinding on it as needed, and was able to use it to turn the quick change assy enough to tighten up the washer.
No leaks at all, but I'm keeping a close eye on it.
