I have a quick drain oil drain on my Cherokee 140. It is the style with an exposed coil spring above a pronged lock that slides up and locks open. After a recent oil change it seems that oil is dripping from that quick drain while in flight. I don't really see it dripping while on the ground. I see evidence of the oil leaking from there after flight with oil being on the inside of the cowl below that area.
Does anyone know if there is a way to rotate that quick drain to help close it?

Thanks in advance.
