just use a 6" crescent wrench for the drain plugs..and use a good synthedic oil and either a amsoil or k/n oil filter..make sure you rub a lil oil on the gasket on the oil filter

You may as well use vise grips. You will round the plug head, and cause a world of schitt for yourself or whoever does it for you later in life.

PS-I love to and will always charge extra labor for having to tap the pan and replace the plug because some jerkoff screwed up the plug/threads with vise grips or "Crescent" wrenches.

Unless you have absolutely no other tool, please don't use an Adjustable wrench.
