RE: Stuck oil drain bolt

Well, once I wasn't afraid to give it all I had I got the bolt off, nothing got stripped. Thanks for the help, and those Fumoto valves look awesome...

For those of you who'd like to not run into this situation, and really speed up the oil changes, I highly suggest investing $25 bucks in a "Fumoto Valve." My WRX has one, and its basically the ****

I'm considering getting one. Does having (or not having) the nipple make a difference? I have a '92 LX.

If you have a good sized waste oil catcher, don't bother with the nipple. The nipple makes it easier to run the waste oil back through a hose andinto smaller containers like empty oil bottles, etc..
