Jiffy Lube will not have an oil in stock that has a high enough ZDDP for solid lifters -- I suppose you could take a case of oil there for them to use, but they might not like that. But to answer your question, all you do on an oil change with an SPF/351 is take the drain plug out, put it back in, unscrew the filter, put some oil in the new filter before you spin it back on, fill the crankcase up with oil, start it up and check for leaks. Same with an FE.
