Re: [DML] Re: Oil Changes

["Tom Tait" <TTait@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Aside from finding the drain plug tool,  what exactly is so bad about changing the oil for you?  It takes about 15 minutes Nd you have to go under the car.   If that's just too involved to change the oil, just go to a shop.

Changing the oil involves, well, an oil change.

I'm missing the difficult part....
