It's a new starter and solenoid, and it's working better than the one I replaced, so I'm not going to worry about replacing it again just yet. I think I'm going to put a heat shield on the solenoid and see if that helps.

You CAN change the oil pretty easily. You just remove the plug, let the oil drain, remove the old filter (usually the toughest part of this whole thing), put on a new filter and put in the prescribed amount of oil. Almost any of the chain auto parts stores will dispose of the oil for you.

Metic system is the way of the future. At least imports use ONLY metric rather than both like domestics.
