How Long Should an Oil Change Take at Home?

How long should an oil change take if you do it yourself at your Freehold home? There can be some considerable variation here, but you’ll want to set aside a minimum of one hour. You’ll also want to ensure that you have fresh oil, a new oil filter, a new oil filter gasket, as well as a rubber mallet, correctly sized wrenches, a jack, and wheel blocks.
