Oil Change Supplies

Video Transcript

"Okay, we have a few more materials we're going to cover real quick for changing our oil. Things that are really handy, funnels. Really make the job a lot easier whenever you want to put your oil into you car. Obviously less mess because you're not trying to guess. Anyway, just a lot easier to use a funnel if you can, if possible. What I like to use when I'm changing, are these chocks. And what they do is they sit, one sits in the front of your tire and the other one sits behind your tire. And so if you have four, you can just chock the back tires. That usually does the job. What they do is they keep your vehicle from rolling. Obviously you want to take very, very strong precautions when you're working under your car. You don't want it to roll so make sure you put your parking brake on if that's an option. These chocks will also be really, really good to have and keep you safe hopefully. And the last thing I'm going to talk about are this is a socket set. It's nice to have, mine's kind of old and not very organized. But it's really good to have. You're going to need something to take your drain plug out. It's generally looks like a just like a nut, and you're going to unscrew it and then you're going to need to tighten it up again when you're done. So make sure you get at least a basic set of sockets, or a wrench works too. And make sure you get the right size for your specific drain plug."
