Default Oil Pan

Can someone please confirm that I my wrench is on the oil pan? I am trying to change the oil for my self for the first time and Ive found the oil filter and the like but I am not sure if this is tranny fluid or oil. Also if this is oil any tips on how to get it off, im pulling like a madman but the nut wont budge.

Thanks alot!

STOP!!!!



Don't strip the head off of that with your Chinese wrench Bro.


Dude, what are you doing changing the oil if you don't know the difference between the tranny and oil pan plug?

I know we all start somewhere, but Bro, buy a book.


I'm sorry, I'm tired. Good luck with that.
