"You done pretty good....'cept the adjustable wrench quip..."

It works, so I'll stick with it until I remember to buy a 1" socket when I'm at the parts store. Already got the 1-1/16" deep socket for the elusive R-Sport steering wheel that will eventually show up at the junkyard.

I forgot one tip, my oil disposal process. I use a large square tub as a drain pan, but the corners don't allow me to pour the oil back into the containers with small openings. For that, I use an old laundry detergent jug that has a removeable spout. It pops out easily, leaving a ~2.5" diameter opening to pour in most of the oil, then replace the spout and distribute back into the 1qt. containers.
