On my first car I thought I would surprise my Dad and do an oil change all by myself. I had seen him do it many times in the past and it looked easy. I had an hour before he got home from work so I had plenty of time. I drained the old oil with no problem, sealed it back up, opened the 4 cans of oil. The rest would be easy. Anyway, 45 minutes later Dad pulls up and my head is still under the hood. He takes one look at what I'm doing and busts out laughing. I had been adding the new oil drop by drop through the dipstick. Boy was I embarrassed when he showed me where it was supposed to go.
