What happens here

Faced with a leaking oil filter and no readily available tools, the driver visits a nearby Ace Hardware store to purchase an oil filter wrench. He returns to his truck and, using the wrench, tightens the loose oil filter by hand, ensuring it is snug to prevent further leakage. This quick roadside fix allows him to continue his journey with sufficient oil remaining in the engine, demonstrating resourcefulness in an unexpected situation.

Goal: Stop the oil leak by tightening the oil filter.

i don't think they changed oil because that filter that's down there that filter is the old filter so if they changed oil they didn't change filters if they changed oil all right well unfortunately ace doesn't have oil filters for vehicles but there's a walmart 1.2 miles away i'm going to grab a new oil filter crawl under there and put that on because the one i've got looks like somebody started something and didn't quite finish it i don't know what happened to it we're gonna dump a bunch of oil in and hope we have enough oil left in the truck when we get the 1.2 miles down to the walmart all right found an oil filter let's get this done fast because now it's starting to rain something doesn't look right here what the hell that can't be right okay i'm in business thank you sir they just assumed i had a diesel because i was totally pre-filled it it would just go all over the ground
