Used a 10 ft wood ramp I made to load my mule in trailer. It worked well to get front wheels off the ground enough I could slide under to change oil. I also lifted back end with jack to level thing out and used floor jacks for safety. Easy, fast and way cheaper than taking it to the Honda dealer. My one and only dealer oil change was when it was new and under warranty. It cost over $165. 2 qts of gear lub in rear end, 2 qts of engine oil and filter, and 1/2 qt in front axle. I change all oils at 75 hrs. Engine needed it, front trans-axle really needed it and the rear axle not so much. Oil is cheaper than parts for this girl.
I also changed the full synthetic oil in my terramite, 20 hp kohler. I put 90 hrs on oil and unlike regular oil the engine starts using oil after 60 hrs. Oil looked dark as you can see in pic. No build up under valve cover. I even show oil cap next to dirty oil. Engine hadn't started using oil either. Cost wise it's about the same. Only saving is the filter. Regular oil I would change it 3 times, synthetic 2 times. I buy brand name regular oil of $2 on sale and synthetic for $3 on sale. That's when I buy the limit and store it in the barn.

If it's due to death, your feelings could be in disarray for days, months or even years. Even now after almost 4 years, I still miss my dad. I remember when I was a kid my dad sometimes would tuck my brother and I in at night and we would ask him questions about his childhood on the farm. To this day, it's some of the best stories I've ever heard. And now, I'm so glad that I asked those questions, and if I were a little smarter i
