My husband does all that oil checking and mechanical stuff. I can’t count the number of times that he refused to let the kids get back into their cars and drive back to college until he changed the oil It became a family joke.

We were late to his sister’s wedding because he decided to change the oil and the brakes just before we were to leave from our home in the Bay Area and start on the drive to Fresno! It was so embarrassing. His father was standing in front of the church, pacing, when we drove up. This sister never did even like us, but she made us march up to the front of the church in front of everyone who was on time! That was 35 years ago, and I still remember it.

The oil wil be checked.

Then there are the instructions. 3 books full of instructions! I’m going to need a whole file drawer to hold all the paperwork on this machine!
