[s-cars] fumoto drain valve

i tried that, but it wasn't even close to clearing.  i debated
removing the antiroll bar or raising the engine, but decided it was
more work than just using the stock oil drain plug.  and yes, my car
is a '92.

just how big are the front antiroll bars on the later UrS4/S6s?  they
must be a lot smaller if the fumoto valve clears them.  or maybe
there's something different about the motor mounts in my car.

so, anybody want to buy a brand new fumoto valve?  never had a
drop of oil through it.  comes in the box with gasket.  :)
