Re: Tech [oil pan removal on car]

["Brad Sayer" <vwrocco85@hotmail.com>]

I am just not going to let this one die!  The cut down socket was the last 
thing we tried.  If that didn't work my father suggested we take the 2 
bolts, dremel a slit/notch in each, and use a flat screwdriver, as that is 
thin enough to get up there.  We didn't have to try that, but its just 
another possible option...
