Hi everybody,

How on God's green earth does one get apart the fitting where the automatic transmission dipstick tube fastens to the pan? I assume it's standard thread (Counter clockwise to remove). I hold the pan side with a large open end wrench and try to loosen the tube side with another open end and it won't budge. I've soaked it overnight with PB bolt loosener, still no luck.

I have to replace the kickdown cable and need to drop the pan.

Does any one know what metric sizes these two are and if /where box wrenches with a slot opening are available?

Any secrets or tricks to this one?

Thank you,

Mark
