Subject:      17mm Transmission drain tool in Vancouver?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed"

I want to change the tranny oil on my 4 speed 84 Westy.

The 17mm allen head drain plug (and filler plug) are really tight. I tried a 17mm bolt with double nuts but it wouldn't work.

Does anyone know where I can buy/rent/borrow a 17mm hex socket or 17mm allen wrench near Vancouver BC? I've tried Canadian Tire, Lordo, and Napa. None of them carry anything over 16mm.
