On the 12th Anniversary :) for the first time I changed the oil myself. I had a 10+ yrs old Team Mechanics 2 Ton floor jack and stands... tried using them...was not confident to go under....the jack did not seem to work after lifting a few inches...
Sears had a sale on their Craftsman 3 Ton floor jack and stands... paid about $87 for both... the 3Ton jack slid easily under the hood and I was able to jack up with the stands...
Hurt my finger when trying to assemble the jack and preparing it for the first time :(
Spilled the used oil all over the place....but it was fun! Motorcraft FL 400S oil filter at Walmart $4 Pennzoil high mileage 5qt - $17.xx and 1qt for about $4.30 wanted to try this as the car has $103k miles now...... and takes about 5.5 quarts or so.....
