Here, I can just slide it under the RV when not in use or place it elsewherre near the RV. I can take it to the recycling center to dump it & use it again. I'm glad to have been of help.

I do carry extra oil and check it every 8 hours. But I'm not always near a place I trust for the oil change, so doing it myself makes sense. :)Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516591720277269204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154341542671654923.post-75400818053477456162012-05-16T11:45:22.413-05:002012-05-16T11:45:22.413-05:00Haha, he's not my kitty.

His name is ihop because he was found in bad shape in an ihop parking lot. He probably was hit by a car. So he now has an artificial hip & a good life. He is a cool kitty.TexCynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05174615550131393975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154341542671654923.post-88700883502099633812012-05-16T11:24:31.586-05:002012-05-16T11:24:31.586-05:00I think the cat did a great job of changing the oi...I think the cat did a great job of changing the oil.

I was worried about that ;-) Mine isn't always so cooperative as to help. I have all those tools but not in so tidy a case. Nice case.Tesajehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15965295812302989459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154341542671654923.post-14808972880437979352012-05-13T00:28:12.147-05:002012-05-13T00:28:12.147-05:00Bravo to you for changing your oil yourself and un...Bravo to you for changing your oil yourself and understanding your RV's maintenance issues!

There is a solo lady here in the park and her hot water drain plug blew the other day, and she fixed it. She was very pleased with herself. I sure give you all kudos.
