It looks like jump starting it isn't a big deal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgipEB8IQCI Replacing the battery probably is, but they probably want you to take it to the dealer for everything anyway. :-/ Wasn't there a Chevy Monza or something that required that you had to take off the motor mount and transmission support to drop/raise the motor enough to change a rear spark plug? Ah yes, yes there was... Cheers, Scott.

You literally couldn't do that job without the custom, single-purpose tool. And you had to remove one of the front wheels and driveshaft to access the oil filter. -- Drew
