Default Removing Oil Bolt

Man, the dealership must have really tightened this bolt up.

I'm trying to loosen it up counterclockwise but it won't budge. Should I just hammer it loose so it snaps?

Please detail your suggestions. Thanks.

use a cheater bar. it will work. find some long pole that you can attach snugly to the ratchet you're using and turn it counterclockwise.

I needed more muscle. My neighbor pulled the fukk out of it, hahaha.

You're right though, i need to invest in a longer wrench.

Impact wrench.

Or just put a box wrench on it an use a deadblow hammer. BFH is your best friend for a lot of car work.
