Default Where To Find LARGE Screwdriver for Lower Unit Plugs?

I'm sure you'll hear derogatory remarks about Harbor Freight. I used to
refer to Harbor Freight and Global Tools as being disposable: so cheaply
made that you'll be luck to use a tool more than once.
But when you're on a budget, that may be all you need. I've taken advantage
of the big discounts often.

You can get the same thing from Snap-On or Mac for more money but this
will do the trick. Great for loosening phillip screws that hold lower
unit
together also.

Thanks for the link. It seems to be exactly what I need:
o It has a 1/2" blade that matches the slot size of the plug.
o Its full length looks like quite short that is perfect for the
limited room available for removing the drain plug at the bottom of the
lower unit. That drain plug is pointing kind of downward and the lower
unit is almost touching the ground. These limits the size of a
screwdrive that I can use unless I tilt the motor up.

I need to buy something from Harbor Freight anyway because I have heard
a lot of good things (and bad things) about that place and I want to
try that place to see for myself.
