I let some one else change my oil last time and I cannot get it to move. I have my car up on a jack and am turning the bolt counter clock-wise towards the back of the car, I am pretty sure thats the correct way. I won't move and its starting to strip the bolt, any advice? any one experiance this before? Please help.

Better late than never...
Had similar broblem once, (not with Legend) when engine was hot i sprayed the oil plug with "cold/ice spray", plug shrinks little bit when it gets cold and that helps it to get loose.
Very helpfull stuff (the spray) when installing bearings etc.
