Graaa! so angry!

I'm trying to change my oil quickly, and I can't get the plug bolt out.

I thought "wow, that's easy to get to. I dont even have to jack up the car".

Well that fact is worthless since there is no way to get any leverage on the bolt because of the way it is oriented.

I have no jack / stands at the moment. Any advice?

Buy: Jack and jack stands. Use them properly for your own safety.

You can do it without jack and stands.. but if youuse jack, GET STANDS.

However, get some ramps, or even just drive the front tires up on a curb, put the eBrake on, get under the sucker and do it. It's cake.
