I go through this frustration every time I pull the drain plugs. I have no feeling in the finger tips of my left hand(cut off 3 fingers and got two reattached 12 years ago), and have a very tough time feeling the lower starboard side plug in the Y connector. And often times when I do feel it, I do not have the flexibility to unscrew it. I did not have the problem in the old days of radiator style petcock for the drain plugs. I was thinking of trying to rig a rubber tube extension. Any good ideas form my problem, other than having the mechanic pull the plugs. Thanks.
