Yep, I needed a torch to remove a few. Tapered threads lubricated going in. The expansion-contraction, add road salt for corrosion after the oil is out of the threads and you would be amazed at how tight they can become. After you split the outside of the hex, get out the drill.

Sound advice, to loosen the filler first, but really... Has anyone ever had their fill plug stick?
