Ok everyone beat this... From start to finish (after getting her up on ramps) took me 13 minutes tonight to do an oil & filter change and back her down. Why, you ask?... I have no idea. Clearly I need another hobby

I did one under 20, although I don't know if it was 13 or not.

You timed your oil change? Did you get your inspiration from Ralphie's dad?

I forgot about that! Nah, was just really bored (and the sun was going down and it was getting cold)

This car I won't be working on at all.
My Firebird it never took long to change
the oil. Or plugs for that matter!!
Fastest change is one you do not have
to do yourself!! LOL

try changing your plugs and wires i did mine in 15 dont know if thats slow but thats all the time i get during my break time here at work.

i have also removed the MAF and the throttle body and cleaned them in the same time.

they call me the break mechanic cuz thats when i usually pop the hood and see what i can do.

You're my hero! I'd be too nervous trying to change plugs in 15 mins. I'd end up cross-threading and really screwing myself!

Big deal, I once drained(7 gals.) my oil in 30 secs. Hit a steel post in my work truck.

AHHH I did ALL the work on that car!! I even dismantled the motor,
pulled it with help of course and put everything back together.
Wires and all. Started up but bad engine and it smoked. Bummer.
You should have seen the guys driving past. They would stop, back
up and do a double take, they could not believe a blonde "chick" was
inside the motor elbow deep with grease!! What a sight I am sure!!
