Super Amazing Oil Change DIY

[rstb88]

I disagree with the above, it doesn't need to be hot but not cold. Warm enough to run out smoothly not hot enough to melt gloves to your hand(running temp). Filler cap doesn't matter when opened, aslong as you open it. I would never use anything on a seal that would touch my engine oil unless it is the same oil(old or new) Granted its not much grease, but its an undesired product that may or may not contaminate my oil. Don't have to be down to put the drain plug it just gotta be down before you start the car and check the levels. Aweful hard to get under a Yaris to put the plug back in when its not on stands. I've always use old oil, 1 because unless I see metal flakes or grittyness I feel that it is safe to use 2 my finger doesn't reach far enough into the new oil to get some.

O I'm envious of that stove, I want it. It looks like either a Viking or Wolfe.
