What happens here

Perform an engine oil change using Valvoline VR1 racing oil. In addition to the oil change, clean out any random items or accumulated boxes from the car's interior to reduce weight and clutter. Thoroughly clean the underside of the vehicle to address any oil leaks and present a clean appearance. Perform general fluid checks (e.g., coolant, transmission fluid) and tighten any loose components such as tie-downs.

Goal: Perform essential fluid maintenance and declutter the vehicle for optimal performance.

then change the tire yourself, which is pretty cool. So, I'm doing that. I got to change the oil, and pretty much just clean things off. There's a bunch of random stuff inside that thing that has been in there just like forever, for like the last two years, accumulating random boxes and hose clamps, just stuff that doesn't need to be in there. So, I'm going to take all that out, get it cleaned up, clean up the underside so it looks like it doesn't leak oil sometimes. It does sometimes. I mean, it's not like a drip, but it's always soggy under there, and I can't freaking figure out why, so I don't know. Eventually, I'll pull the motor out and go through everything, redo all the gaskets and whatnot, but right now it works, so I'm not going to mess with it. We got AC.
