I have a 242 DL and I want to learn to work on it and do my own repairs, I have never worked on cars before though. I have a guide now and I got some basic tools and I'm going to do an oil change today or tomorrow, but I wanted to ask people on this board how difficult of a task I'm undertaking here. Also, do you need to buy a new jack so that you can lift the car and put jack-stands in the place that the normal jack plugs into? Thanks for the tips.
