Changed the oil (3rd time). Holy shit what a fucking pain in the ass that was! The miniature oil filter is too small for my wrench. It is also placed in such a way that even with a drip pan under it the fucking oil went ALL over my fucking garage floor. Then my oil drain pan is a standard 5-6 quart and the Mustang holds 8 quarts so it was filled to the brim. While trying to slide it out from under the car I spilled another quart of oil. So I stopped and grabbed my siphon pump to draw off some oil and the siphon pump started leaking, resulting in yet more oil on the floor. I was about 1" away from just dumping the entire fucking oil pan on the floor, it would have been faster!

Holy fuck I have never in my life had such a difficult time changing oil in a vehicle. And I just did a 20 quart oil change in the bucket truck on Saturday, spilled almost nothing except a few drips from the two quart filter. I may just run this bitch till it dies and trade it in rather than change the oil again.

I realize you may trade in the car before changing the oil again, but... a good trick for the oil filter is to place a zip lock bag around it. When you loosen it, all the oil will fall into the bag and not the floor.

Sorry you had a rough time, I hate getting oil on my floor.

Yeah, I've been changing oil for over 35 years and never had to resort to the ziplock bag thing. Always use a rag and move quick but this one dumps a lot more than most. Then the fucking access panel hangs directly in the drip zone so it gets covered with oil as well and splatters it even further.

Well if you haven't figured it out in (3 tries ) you probably won't- They make drive thru oil change places for people with no patience and below average ability to learn how to perform the same task after multiple attempts. Relax just busting your stones. But really did that 4 letter verb you used as adjective and adverb make you feel better.

Yeah, wtf????

That's like someone who wants to join in on a group of people lightly poking fun at someone and taking it too far with their first attempt....

Fucking sounds like the kind of fucking guy that will fucking come back spouting off Bible verses and talking about how fucking wrong it is to fucking swear :omfg:

FUCK !!!

It's all good, guys. Let's not drag out the torches and pitchforks just yet.

Just remember, if a comment can be taken two different ways, a mean way and a joking way, then odds are the speaker intended for it to be interpreted in the joking way.
