I got to ride yesterday as it was the first sunny 50 degree day in months. So I got home after a 30 mile ride and decided I was over due drained all the fluids I noticed the 2 of my drain plugs were loose that was very disconcerting! I guess I will get them a little tighter this time. Maybe my torque wrench is off ?

A drain plug properly installed and torqued will not come loose...On anything.

Double check your torque wrench setting.

Inspect the threads on the plug.

It will be one of those mysteries that never gets solved... :)
