The helpers and I got 'earl back in Cecilia this Saturday after playing in the storm shelter/oil pit. First we worked on The Blonde's car (work first), then we got to Cecilia (play last). That orange canister in the corner is my new parts cleaner (2 gal. diesel).

The boy got oil all over himself taking the drain plug out of the car and said, "Look Mommy, I'm a MAN!"

where I drained the oil? Well she's still sittin thirsty so we decided to oil her back up now that the carquest filter came in.

So we grabbed the now-painted filter housing and put the filter in, and the little paper gaskety thing on the outside rim. It'll get pressed into the receiving end when it's tightened up so it's OK that it's floppy here in the pic.

I took that under the truck and stuck it in this hole. Be sure to get it just snug then move it around until you're sure its in the little lip or it'll overhang and oil will SPURT out from your truck....

Moving on, I grabbed the plug that included the grey RTV I had put around it earlier.

Some excess grey RTV popped out so I just tore it off with my fingers. It didn't leak a drop later so this is A-OK.
