muncie oil topup
hi all,
I feel somewhat silly asking this question... but since I recently broke an aluminium part trying to unscrew a seized plug, I figured I should make certain before I brute force it the wrong way!
With the gearbox in car - which way should the top up plug on the side unscrew? - eg: should I be pulling the wrench towards the front of the car or the back?
thanks for thoughts!

So.. paranoid confirmation question..
is 'lefty loosey' the right orientation when you are under the car, looking up at the box from underside? (From passenger side)
mindful that if you were on top of the box, left would be the opposite direction... or drivers side.. :s

Your water bottle (or anything else in the fridge) works the same way. Position it the way you are looking at it on the car and it will be the same.
