“Avoid dropping the oil filter” drops filter 🤣😂🤣

Well done, simple, quiet, and straightforward,

Great video. Liked how quite without all the extra thumping you get from heavily produced vids. Unedited dropping of filter with warning was a nice touch.

Great video I like how you went down to detail to detail. I can’t wait to do my first oil change on my civic type r

i have the same ramps. a single 2x4 on each side at the base of the ramp allows you to drive onto the ramps without pushing them with the bumper

Helpful Video, Thanks. Which specific Rhino Ramps are those, and what kind, model jack is that? Thanks

@ez12a

Not sure about the model but they're the standard ones from Auto parts stores. As noted in the description they are too steep to drive up on with the type R. You will need a lower profile ramp. The Jack is very old and isn't made anymore. I would get one of the "higher end" (lol) low profile Daytona Jacks from harbor freight if I needed one.

Quick question how is the new drain plug holding up? Also did you just tighten till it was no more movement not sure how you could figure out 18 ft/lb torq

@ez12a

I haven't gotten under the car since this video but the oil level has been steady ever since. I figured torque from experience. With a short handled tool like the one I used it'll be harder to overtorque unless you really crank on it.

Hi dude, it would really be helpful to me if you could tell me the range of motion your jack has, for example 505mm height 330mm height. I have the ramps as yours but the lip/bumper touches first before the tires and i would like to lift the car the same way you have. I don't want to purchase a jack which won't lift the vehicle high enough for the ramps not to fit. Again would appreciate the most if you let me know 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Nice vid thanks, but be careful!!! I've had those rhino style ramps collapse once, I believe it was a 2nd-gen CR-V. It's tough watching with the car only on the rams in the background. Perhaps it was only because I've seen them fail. Happened when someone leaned on the front fender, so there was suddenly a little lateral force as well as mostly downward. Crunch. Perhaps they had it out for me. t(-_-t) 2-ton jack stands are not expensive from harbor freight though just sayin.

You say tighten to 18 ft.-lbs. but don't use a torque wrench. Maybe you have perfect torque perception like some musicians have perfect pitch, but I'm guessing most people don't.

You can use a crows foot wrench to attach to standard torque wrenches. The valve has a softer gasket to also allow a certain degree of movement for positioning the lever
