In today's economy, many people are looking to save money. One way to save money is by changing your own oil in your car. Here are the directions for a DIY oil change.

First, you will need to gather some tools and supplies. You will need an adjustable wrench, and a pan to catch the oil as it drips from the crank case of your car. Check in the owner's manual for the type of oil that is required and the filter that is needed. Additionally, you may need a filter wrench to remove the old oil filter. To be sure you get the right wrench, pick it up at the auto parts store when you purchase a new filter.
