Question Torque Converter Drain

It's time for a trans oil change. (Again)
How do you get the converter drain plug to be visible?
Must be an easier way than cranking the motor!@#$

Thanks in advance,
john

Put a socket on the crankshaft bolt and turn the engine with a breaker bar.

MAKE SURE THE KEY IS *NOT* IN THE IGNITION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

use an 18mm socket on the lower pully nut. turn until bolt is visible in inspection hole. I did my brothers last month and I could keep my eye on the hole and trun the socket wrench at the same time. But his wa a 4x4 and had a little more room underneath to move around into position.
