my wife will try to but, I'm kind of a control freak and if she don't know whats shes doing i have to do it for her to make sure its right. many times shes changed her oil before i guess thats a step, i think its more of a fear she might hurt herself thats why i do it, heck shes even tore down her dads 96 cav. 2.2 while he was at work then was able to put it all back togeather
