| Topic | Do you change your own oil? |
| OhhhJa 02/22/24 12:55:08 PM #43: | captpackrat posted... I changed my own spark plugs one time. I got really lucky; it was a Ford Triton V8 and they literally had a 14 page TSB on how to change the plugs. The original plugs had a design flaw and would break off inside the engine if you weren't careful, and the previous owner had never changed the plugs so my car still had the defective plugs. I didn't know this when I started, otherwise I'd have taken it to a mechanic.It's funny that the more I've done stuff myself on my car, I've been less likely to do it myself outside of brakes and other really simple jobs in the future. I've changed a radiator, multiple serpentine belts, idler pulley, u joint, starter, fuel filter, probably others I'm forgetting. Now I just remember how much a lot of those jobs sucked and I'm like "Yeah I'll just pay someone" lol Helps if you have a mechanic you trust ... Copied to Clipboard! |
