Well, something finally got done!Since I have trouble getting up and down, I was reluctant to do anything that requires me to crawl under the car. I try to think of everything I need when I go under, but it never fails - I always need some unanticipated tool after I'm down there.
My wife offered to come out and sit while I work under the car so she could hand me whatever I needed. I appreciated the offer, but she often has trouble finding the correct tool.
Anyway, I accepted her offer because I wanted to put a new filter in the transmission and install the new pan. All we needed was to work out when we would do it between doctor appointments and other obligations.
A couple of days later my good friend and fellow hotrodder, Mike Krupp, made the same offer. My wife was relieved that she wouldn't have to do it, so I jumped at the chance. When we started, Mike insisted I let him take the lead. He went under the car, and I became the helper!
Anyway, after he made a trip to the parts store to get the correct filter, the job was done without any difficulties. Many thanks to Mike!
