I'm not talking about the clothes. that is minimal. You volunteered
to pay to clean the engine compartment, the radiator, condensor and
the garage floor. Thanks.
I did not like getting the stuff in my eye. Going to take a shower
now to get it out of my hair.
I would have remembered a bath like that - so I lucked out when I did it
last time. I have a set of "car" clothes - no cleaning bill other than they
get washed all by themselves.

Good! I'll send YOU the cleaning bill!
When the filter came off and splashed fluid all over my head, some of it
ran into my eye before I could turn eyes up. so, in return for your
cheerful funding of washing up my mess, I will tell you that the filter on
my 00 with 3.3 engine is square, and the one FLAPS sold me was not. They
gave me the wrong filter. It is held on at the RR corner of the filter with
a tube that fits with an oring into the valve body. So, grab the LF corner
with one hand and pry the filter RR corner away form the valve body with the
other, and you can avoid the bath. The filter has 4 little bumps that
interfere with the oil pan, so the oil pan holds the filter snug in place.
for 100k miles, the fluid was not bad. Cleaner than the 150k SL that
probably had trans filter changed sometime. Guess I shoulda done the trans
filter right away. SHoulda done it on the van long ago, but I only intended
to keep it a year or two. Now I think it is 5 or approaching 5 I have had
this van.
