Get what you pay for. Pittsburg tools aren’t made with the best material.

Damn. Mine came out like they had barely even tightened it when I went to replace it with the plug from the OEM pump.

Honestly I'd be a little concerned for the threads if they put it in that tight. Some heat might help get it out if you still wanna check it.
