oil pan drain plug

I have a 1999 XJ8L 4.0 V8 . Is the drain plug on the oil pan
Left hand tread or right hand tread? I am planning on changing the
oil myself and don't want to strip the plug - Thanks for any help

RE: oil pan drain plug

It's a normal right hand thread - righty tighty, lefty loosey - turn clockwise to tighten, counter-clockwise to loosen
