Raise them right! You gotta start them somewhere, so let tackle a simple oil and filter change--lol! Not so simple on a 993!

On another note: looks like you got your money worth on that motor oil!

Ha ha, we've all been there. Like I tell my 5-yr old: "It's ok to make a mess, as long as you clean it up."

Been a long time! Viken left quite a while ago; hit up JD if you want the skinny. Robin never posts here anymore. Edward, bobbyp, mike cap and a few others I'm missing still post. Internet Brands bought out John's baby as well...

Glad you're teaching your son and happy to see you still have the car/cars.
