I have a leaking radiator drain plug. Am trying to remove it. I have it open all the way counter clockwise. I am not sure now if i pull it out or keep turning it counter clockwise. Am afraid of striping out threads or breaking it. Please advise

you'll have to pull on it, the new one will pop in the same way it popped out, then you can screw it tight, just like it loosened. just apply some "pull" pressure on it as you rock it back and forth, to and fro. and you should get it
