Who can change their oil faster - a mechanic or an engineer?!
Engineering Explained and Humble Mechanic face off in an Oil Change Race
Sponsored by Mobil 1 - www.mobil.com/...
Jason of Engineering Explained has challenged Charles of Humble Mechanic to a race. An Oil Change Race, that is. Jason has a degree in mechanical engineering and worked briefly as a test engineer. Charles went to trade school to become an automotive technician and worked within the industry for over 13 years.
The rules are simple! Change the oil on your car. Whoever does it faster wins. The following steps are generally required for an oil change:
1. Lift the car/drive up on ramps.
2. Drain the oil.
3. Replace and torque the oil pan drain bolt.
4. Remove the oil filter and replace with a new filter.
5. Fill the engine with new oil.
6. Lower the car/drive off ramps.
7. Check for oil leaks.
8. Check the oil level.
9. Properly dispose/recycle the old oil.
BUT, for the purposes of the race, timing starts when you pop the hood, and timing stops when the hood is closed, before steps 7 through 9. In reality, you should never rush automotive maintenance, as it can lead to mistakes. Always be thorough and take your time to get things right!

Good competition but I think you should include running the engine and checking the level as part of the time. That can be a very time consuming part. Especially if the dipstick happens to be french. They will make the dipstick the same colour as the oil and have the dip stick go through the filler neck. Could also be a electronic dipstick that needs to driven for half a hour before checking. Then you need to reset the oil service light which could take another 15 min depending on the procedure. Suddenly as 12 min job becomes 1 hour easily.

if you let it go till it stops dripping that's fine, but it ultimately doesn't matter as you still have residual oil in the pump, galleys, journals, etc. and really you SHOULD want that to remain there as it aids in preventing dry start conditions. some engines (think big diesels) are designed expressly to RETAIN a quantity of oil in the block just for this reason. most vac systems are low pressure anyway, thus "vac" is really a bit of a misnomer for what they REALLY are is simply a "transfer pump".

As a Lube Tech I I performed the underside service on 55 vehicles - cars & trucks - in one 7 he shift. Speed was highly stressed, second only to safety... We worked in tandem. Serviced a Honda Civic in about 6 minutes once! But that's with an under car pit and hydraulic oil pump. After moving to a full service shop I still serviced 6-7 vehicles per day. As a Lube Tech I serviced almost 6,000 cars in 6 months! In the Quick Lube shops you'll be servicing two cars at the same time more often than not! It's actually expected of an experienced technician to be able to perform multiple under car services simultaneously. Just go to any busy OilStop and you'll see them roll 100 cars through the doors in one day like it's nothing! 🤣

Skinny legend, I couldn’t even get my head under that Subaru let alone my stomach 😂😂😂

this was so silly. you have a simple japanese car vs a complicated german one. I think the largest take away is how user friendly the subaru is. lololol.

I've changed a lot of oil in my life, and I could never do it as fast as jason unless it's a lifted vehicle. I think my arm may be thicker than his whole torso. I could never have gotten under that crosstrek without lifting it.

Been thin enough to not have to lift the car one inch is a big help and smart enough to cut corners and still do the job properly won the battle

"Pound-feet" YEP! There's the engineer! The rest of the world uses "Foot-pounds" even though that means something else. Thank you for sharing and stay safe!
