I swear..
So i'm trying to change my oil. I know it's supposed to be like a 20 minute thing. BUT its been an hour and i still can't get the stupid drain plug off. I mean seriously what the **** am i doing wrong that i can't perform this simple task. Ive used 14mm, 15mm, 9/16, 5/8.. Why can't i get this ****ing thing off?

RE: I swear..
just take the oil filter off and start the car. all the oil will find it's way out.
Seriously,if i remember right it's 15MM..i took mine to Jiffy Lube to get it done last time...whats wrong? just cant get a wrench to fit it?

RE: I swear..
either 15mm or 5/8 will work, i use 5/8. are you sure youre turning it the right way? lefty loosey, dont mistake turning the handle to the left cause thats turning the bolt clockwise to the right which is tightening!

RE: I swear..
there could be 2 things actually wrong, first could be the last person changing the oil may have overtightened it, or that said person could have put it on crooked. but make sure your turning it the right way and good luck

I think it's partly due to the actual bolt itself. It's old and weathered, when I get back from work i'm going to take another crack at it. I'll try the 16mm aswell. Thanks for the advice.
