The ZJ was due for an oil change, so I took advantage of the day off work and went ahead and changed the oil! Here's some pics!

What should we do if there's not a "PepBoys" near us?????

And is the stuff that comes out actually gold?

You might be able to substitute other options, such as CarQuest, NAPA, Checker/Kragen, or Wal-Mart. I prefer to use to Pep Boys due to its close vicinity to my house, but would assume that other stores would work just as well for this purpose.

Honestly, that never even crossed my mind until you brought it up! It kinda started out as making fun of Chad for all his pics of everything, then just went WAAAAAY overboard!

Can I do one on shampooing my seats. I figure I can do it in about 20 posts and finally upgrade from noobie status at the same time.

I do have a couple observations as well. First I think I counted at least 3 moving violations inlcuding no turn signals, crossing yellow lines and 1 vehicular homicide.

How did you dispose of the used oil? I think if you are going to post such a technical proceedure you need to include the final details for the rest to learn properly from.

It's still sitting in the drain pan on my shop. I was too lazy to do anything with it once we were done. I'll probably post a writeup on that too.

I personally like to use my leftover oil to burn the pile of spare tires in my back yard. You should post this over at POR.. I'm thinking this level of tech is probably better off there.. this might be a bit too hardcore for this board.

Just one question:

What is this "oil"? stuff you are referring to? And why were you pouring that liquid into the 710 cap on your engine?

(OK, two questions...)

You should just copy your origional "writeup" to JU

To them, that's hard core tech!

Oh, next time do it without pouring half the oil on the floor and pan :D

damn, trojanman brought this post back up from almost a year ago....still funny though!

two things i noticed....1) dave doesn't know how to pour oil correctly....it's supposed to be poured w/ the open end of the container at the top (they designed oil bottles like that for a reason).
and 2) dave didn't really jump that high. he just held his arms up and then later photochopped his legs from the knees down out of the picture.

Dave owns this bulletin board...he can post whatever he wants. Plus this post was funny and made us all laugh. No one cares that you just got a D60... post something once you've done some work to it and have something interesting to tell us.

And i doubt dave has axle envy... at least when he sells his jeep, he doesn't have to split the money with his friend.

I got my oil changed by someone other than myself today for the first time ever. My roommate's Jeep is taking up valuable garage space.

"You can beat 'em to hell as long as you give them what they want" said the guy at the quicklube. I thought he was talking about his woman...

my spout thingy's in the middle too, but it's got a long enough nozzle that it's accurate when it pours. :flipoff2:

I woke up grinning, told Kristin I was going to finish the MJ just to sell it next year, and build another rig of the grand-variety. She hasn't spoken to me all day because she knows that I mean it. I'm planning on having my midlife crisis a little early!
