    1) Wait until Saturday, drive to auto parts store and buy a case of oil,
    filter, kitty litter, hand cleaner and a scented tree, write a check for
    $50.00.
    2) Stop by 7-11 and buy a case of beer, write a check for $20, drive home.
    3) Open a beer and
    drink it.
    4) Jack car up. Spend 30 minutes looking for jack stands.
    5) Find jack stands under kid's pedal car.
    6) In frustration, open another beer and drink it.

    kitty litter on spilled oil.

    15) Give up; crawl under car and hammer a screwdriver through oil filter and
    twist off.
    16) Crawl out from under car with dripping oil filter splashing oil
    everywhere from holes. Cleverly hide old oil filter among trash in trash can
    to avoid environmental penalties. Drink a beer.
    17)
    Buddy shows up; finish case of beer with him. Decide to finish oil change
    tomorrow so you can go see his new garage door opener.
    18) Sunday: Skip church because "I gotta finish the oil change." Drag pan
    full of old oil out from underneath car. Cleverly dump oil in hole in back

    into hole. Steal sand
    from kids sandbox to cleverly cover oily patch of ground and avoid
    environmental penalties. Wash drain plug in lawnmower gas.
    29) Discover that first quart of fresh oil is now on the floor. Throw kitty
    litter on oil spill.
    30) Drink beer.
    31) Crawl under car getting kitty litter into eyes. Wipe eyes with oily rag
    used to clean drain plug. Slip with stupid crescent wrench tightening drain
    plug and bang knuckles on frame.
    32) Bang head on floorboards in reaction to step 31.
    33) Begin cussing fit.
    34) Throw stupid crescent wrench.

    It aint a repost and is damn funny.
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Yeah but at least he had a quality fully synthetic oil in the family corolla. She probably got dumped with the shittiest bought by the barrel 20w50 fully mineral bollocks. You know the stuff you use to break an engine in, cause the lacklustre lubrication helps the valves seat.

    Also she paid $500 for it, not the $20 quoted. Cause the mechanic said he had to replace her rotator cuff for $300 on top of $200 for the shittiest oil change which they probably overfilled anyway, causing the crank to mash air into the oil making the tappets tick annoyingly whenever the car runs.

    learn and do it yourself... all it takes is a socket and some new oil from the shop, your a small guy so you dont need to jack the car up

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Done at least 5 oil changes myself, can't be bothered dealing with the left over oil and the mess. It only takes 10 minutes to do - apart from letting the oil drain out overnight.

    Got new tyres, chain and sprockets fitted, so told the boys from Botany to change the oil and filter while they were at it.
