I have seen some of the members here adding ways to drain the oil tank. 911s have a tank drain, but their tanks are mounted fairly low in relation to the engine. The bottom of the 6 tank is close to being near the same height as the top of the engine caes. Won't the oil just run into the engine case?

@Dead Air - I use the Porsche wrenches when I break that connection. I have them both on the fittings with about 1"-2" distance between the wrench handles and then I just grab the wrenches and squeeze them together. I don't like using adjustable wrenches on fittings. You could also try reversing the wrenches to try to tighten the fitting a bit to see if it breaks free. Maybe try some penetrating oil on the fitting and let is soak overnight. Just depends on how long since they were taken apart. Good luck- it is not an easy thing to do if the car is not on a lift. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
