Women who change their own oil...
Well i am now proud to be one of these women... And perhaps the only one i know of! Anyone else know any women that change their own oil.
I'll tell ya im really proud of myself !!!! Maybe i should start my own forum! Although it may be a motley crew that it would attract . Jen |

I doubt many women I know could find the dipstick to CHECK their car's oil.

Mrs.Rotorflyr can rebuild carburetors, so Im pretty sure she can change not only find the dipstick but change the oil to boot!

and then there are others
congrats on changing your own oil. personally i have done oil, brakes, tires, belts and hoses, rear ends (swapped a posi for a single wing when the posi went out), one car (my first) was a lime green 1970 Plymouth Duster with a 318 and i used to carry altenators in the trunk because it was going through them every couple of weeks, so i was at the point that as soon as it started squealing i would pull over and have it changed and be back on the road in about 15 minutes (for those of you wondering, yes i did eventually slow down enough to trouble shoot the problem and fix it), and i have no idea how many tune ups and radio installs i have done. but that was before i met hubby number two, now he does everything and i just hand him the tools and do part runs, oh yeah sometimes i tell him what and how to do it! so if this old lady can do all of these things Jen then you can too. get busy!
p.s. i am not so sure how much the guys like it though when a female can out wrench them. so you may want to stop at the oil change. i know i never got asked out because of my mecanical abilities. but out driving them was always way fun! sorry Jen but you asked. oh and i was 16 when i started all of these things and i haven't really turned a wrench much in the past 14 years. sometimes i do miss it but not much. by the way i am alwyas proud of every woman who can and does do their own repairs and upkeep.

I am curious to know from a long time whether u have been at the BESTBUY, LOWES area around fairfield mall. I remember sighting an SVX othre than mine once while goin into Steak 'n' Shake at tht place. At tht time i thought of following but, i was in drive thru at tht time. If it is u then, i am very happy to see a member of SVX over here. Actually I sight often a Blue SVX (probably FWD) in our school's parking lot and I have tried to contact him/her, but I think he/she is not interested in our network (I dont know). -Pavan. |
