So glad dad showed me how to work on cars. This is why I refuse to let anyone do routine maintenance work (like oil changes) on my car. I'm worried they'll not put in the right oil I requested, put in too little or too much, forget to tighten the drain bolt or over-torque it, forget to change out the oil filter or put the wrong one in and then not tighten it properly. That kind of **** would keep me awake at night and I would end up doing it all over myself the next weekend just so I could sleep again.
