As long as I can lay down I'll be changing the oil in all my cars. I've seen and heard of stripped oil plugs that require being tapped oversize or the use of a self tapping plug (no thanks) or neglecting to tighten them enough, and when they back out entirely, someone is buying an engine. I can think of better ways to save a buck. How hard is it to change oil properly???
