Hi I'm about to service my own car and my brother has asked me to do an oil change on his Metro Turbo.

Size is 15/16" is it not? Its a coarse thread, I've never had a problem getting them undone.

Get a decent sized breaker bar on the socket, it'll come undone. The reason I say a decent size is because I've taken skin off my hands using a ratchet before. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

and don't go balls out tightening it back up, just nip it up save killing the thread in the box. On 20th Oct, 2015 Tom Fenton said:
