I need to change the oil in the foot of my motor. I have tried and tried to get the oil plugs out and can't. I'm wondering if they make a tool for them. I've tried the biggest screwdriver I can find with no luck. Any ideas?

I sometimes have to use a large screwdriver with a square shank and use a crescent wrench. Sometimes a very light tap on the end of the screwdriver helps. Operative word in "light tap". Good luck.
I use the biggest screwdriver that will fit the slot, and a pair of Vise Grips clamped tight on the screwdriver handle for leverage. You'll need some new washers for the screws when you get them out.
