I took a 14mm hex key, put it into a 14mm box end wrench, and put the other end of the wrench inside a 4' length of pipe.

Wasn't too hard with that length of pipe as a lever, but I was wondering at the time what I was going to do if I twisted the plug out of it's threads

Of course I had it sitting on jack stands plus a floor jack, and the wheels chocked.

But it worked out just fine. So fine that I did my other car shortly afterwards.
