Did my truck yesterday
I'm 73 and had both knees replaced. Plan to keep doing my own oil changes as long as I can, but I'm beginning to think it won't be much longer. Any thoughts? Thanks

I like to use the shop vac for assistance when pulling the oil pan drain plug.
I place the catch pan under the drain plug, loosen the plug, place the shop-vac pickup hose onto the oil fill port on the valve cover, turn the vac on. Remove the drain plug then shut the vacuum off. Hands get no oil on them and no splash into the catch pan.  The Ford 7.3 has over 15 quarts of oil, so I don't like to spill any.
