    snug but not so tight to damage the threads. You don't need
    to torque spec an oil pan plug unless you keep stripping the
    threads.

    I would suck it out the top with a livestock syringe. They are cheap ($1) and you can control the amount much better.

    Default spray bottle

    Or just get a spray bottle and take out the spray part and stick it in and pump the handle and squirt it in what ever you want.

    Here I am, trying to give serious and thoughtful advice (and cheap BTW) and you have to turn it into something dirty because you can't stop thinking about how bad you want to bone some of Harris' private stock. You MD boyz are truly sick.
