DIY Oil Change. Get Beat up by a Kid with Polio.

Step 4Undo the Drain Plug

Undo the Drain Plug
Position the tub under the drain plug. The oil will gush out and you need to be ready for it.
I put mine up on a milk crate so it would be closer so the oil wouldn't splash so much.

Use a wrench that fits properly. The looser the wrench the more damage it will do to the bolt head.

In Kenya I took my motorcycle to a garage with five employees. Their tools consisted of one pair of pliers, which they shared. I was worried they would mar my bolt heads. But honest work had made their hands very strong, and had smoothed the teeth on the pliers. They did an excellent job and I could see no marks on the bolts afterward.
