First oil change & Lube

Just did my first oil change. I bought a funnel at the local auto parts store today that had a hose attached and a shut off valve for $5.00. It also has lines showing quart, pint etc. . Hopkins 10704 FloTool Spill Saver Measu-Funnel. Amazon has them and you can order them from Walmart too. I bought a piece of 1/2 garden hose 3 feet long & 2 hose clamps and replaced the original hose because it was flimsy and looked like it would kink easy. Made changing the oil a breeze with the 5 quart jugs. Used a Motorcraft filter and I am trying the Mobil 1 Extended Performance w5-20 oil because Walmart was out of the plain Mobil 1. Lubed up the steering linkage too, they all had very little grease in them. If you like to do your own maintenance this may help you too.
