Removing oil pressure release valve???

[Johnny69]

How do you remove this bloody thing. Mines weeping oil out when it's running - is there a special tool or a way of removing this - a screwdriver doesn't seem up to it as it's bloody big screw head??

I'm hoping some thread seal will help seal it if I can get it out and back in

Use a screwdriver that completely fills the slot, otherwise you can damage the alloy plug. They're a really tight fit so some effort is required to remove them.

I use a blunt shizzle and a small hammer to loosen them.

I used a piece of thin iron plate/bar that fits the slot, cut it to the full width of the slot, then bent it at the end into an L shape. Then just used it like a spanner.
