Eric and other auto enthusiasts,
I am having an issue with my oil drain plug, I don’t seem to have the leverage I need to loosen it. Equipment I am using for my oil change is as Follows:
(2) 2 Ton Jack Stands on raised one notch
17mm Wrench and SocketCar 2008 Hyundai Tiburon 2.0l
I have a 2 ton floor jack that doesn’t get the car high enough to get the jack stands under so I’ve been using the scissor Jack which goes high enough to place the jack stands on one notch above base height. When under the Car, I can not seem to get the Drain Plug to move even a millimeter.
Also I have been considering replacing the Drain Plug with one of those twist valve but am skeptical. Any thoughts or suggestions on the Drain Plug issue and Eric could you do a video or quick tip on those drain plug valves v. Regular Drain Plugs.
If anyone is the San Bernardino County area of CA and can help me out, I would be greatful
Thank You,
Dave
