Oh. I also note oil changes in my iPod phone. Miles, date, oil brand, weight, Wix filter number. I finally got enough not small block chevys in my life that I started writing down drain plug wrench size. It saves the down ups that get harder every day. (You know what the down ups are. You get under the car, realize it isn't a 9/16ths, then you gotta get back up and walk to the tool box)

Sure do. I know my chevy plug is 9/16 hex, but the others are written with the logs among other pertinent stuff, such as a reminder the *((^)(*) splash shield doesn't have to be removed on a 2013 Tundra to change oil. "Everyone" seems to believe you do. Think I about had a coronary reinstalling it into the core support, never again. A couple of spare pillows, and handheld jug for the filter makes it easy.
