That depends. Did the 17mm socket get the drain plug out?

Step One: Remove drain plug

Let me know when you are ready for Step Two.

i lol at their pos service of "on time" delivery when the store used priority mail, 5 days late and still considered "on time."

my wife rarely swears, but when i facepalmed about this ordeal she said 'u do know usps stands for US Piece of Shittt.'

i 'ed.

yah, i suppose.. but i still use the factory plug. i lol at those 'magnetic' plugs. wooooo~ wtf mang. like that little coat of black metal particles on the magnet is REALLY helping your engine.

most of my purchases i dont have say on the 'free guaranteed 2 day delivery' from amazon. they choose usps, not me.
i told them MANY TIMES stop using usps for guaranteed 2 day delivery cause usps dont guarantee nothing but a headache.

I never did understand magnetic plugs. If little tiny metal shavings cause that much damage, something else is totally screwed on the car.

As for race ramps....no. I need to feel like a man in my youthful age of jacking a car up.
