🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Alright, before you get your hands dirty, let's make sure we're doing this right, the Kiwi way:
• Safety First, Mates! Hot engine parts can give you a nasty surprise. Let the old girl cool down before you start fiddling. And never, ever get under a car supported only by a jack. Use proper axle stands – no exceptions!
• Keep it Clean: Before you even crack a bolt, give the area around the filter a good scrub with a Brake Cleaner. Grit's the enemy!
• Protect Your Hands: Old oil's filthy stuff. A decent pair of Nitrile Gloves will keep your mitts clean and safe.
• Catch Those Drips: Have an oil drip tray handy. Spilled oil's a pain to clean up and not great for the environment, eh?
• A Little Lube Goes a Long Way: Before you screw on the new filter, give the rubber gasket a smear of fresh oil. Helps it seal properly and makes it easier to get off next time.

🧰 What Else You'll Need:
• Clean Workspace: Lay down an oil drip tray and microfibre towels under the oil drain plug.

• Clean Hands: Protect your hands from used engine oil with Nitrile Gloves.
