generh2 -> First (DIY) oil change since I got her....(PICS) (3/5/2008 11:01:50 AM)

Hello all!
Just yesterday I changed the oil on her for the first time since I purchased her. I also changed the air filter. Wow!! $80.00 for the air filter!!!
Anyways...It was pretty easy. Isn't it wonderful to be able to change the oil w/o having to use ramps or jacks!! :o)
I love it!!
A few pics for your enjoyment......
The supplies I used...

I also removed these 3 bolts...I'm not sure if I had to...but it just made things way easier.

Old oil filter exposed....I wonder if NAPA filters are ok. I went with OEM though, just in case.
