Hey,, one thing missing for us guys. I roll out a old bathroom mat to lay on :D . My cardboard got kinda nasty.

hehe

When I do it I use a piece of carboard (it's still clean). :D

Then I jack it up, and put it on the stands, and put the pan under the drain plug. Then I open the plug. Then wash my hands (unless I have on gloves, just throw 'em away or set them to the side) and the wrench, and come back in a little while. I then close the plug and take it back down , then back up the car. And clean up the mess, pour the new oil in, and the old in the now empty bottles. And I'm done. Longest part is the waiting. :p hehe Guys always made it seem really hard n stuff, but it's simple, anyone could do it... same as changing a tire. hehe

I'm the only person who touches my car if I can help it. I know, that probably scares the crap out of some of you who know me, but I'm really anal about my oil changes. Fully synthetics, I'm picky about the filter, and I still only go 3k between em. Heck, its 50 for the parts I use, but the way I drive its cheap insurance. Its always a nice color when I drain it, and I don't have to worry about blowing up for that reason at the track.

He he, and its Miss January now, but you got to keep her high enough to be out of the line of fire.;)

lol that is pretty hillarious. When I had my Mach 1 I did a oil change in the spring, and then put about 1000 miles on it and then did another oil change on it before she went away (then she was sold). It depends how you drive your car too, if you do alot of racing it's best not to wait overly long for a oil change.
