Not a great idea when its a sump plug attached to a sump filled wil oil.... A whack with a hammer is also always a good idea to free seized nuts (oo-er).
And rember the rule - lefty loosey, righty tightyWrench wasnt shifting it.....now starting to get rounded
If that fails - try cutting a line into the head of the nut with a hacksaw - just deep enough to get a screwdriver in and unscrew the bast**d!
Good luck...
If ya cant get it with a vice grips, there's no chance you'll get it with a screw driver.
... and never again to wiggle under a car on cold gravel with a toasty exhaust pipe 3cm from my nose and barely enough room to turn the wrench while grinding your elbow into the gravel, and thats before 15 minutes fumbling to get at the filter.....
Such luxury......Where do you live I'll pay you rent!!!The vice grips sorted it (gave it a shot of WD40 as well), and got a new (quality) socket for the new sump plug so all's well.
First time using an inspection pit I put into a new garage/small shed so after a stuttering start its all worked out
