yep, that’s what we do too. One time I forgot and slammed the hood down and broke the filler cap because I forgot it was there

 

I've been working on bicycles, motorcycles, and cars since the early 70's.... I've done
a lot of stuff like that.
Usually because I wasn't paying attention. Or "thought" I had already done something I hadn't.....

Now that I'm antique, I'm triple checking EVERYTHING!
Even a basic oil change, I keep the old stuff in sight so I knew I did it.
I keep my 5qt jug of oil on top of the engine with the filler cap, just to be sure.
I've never forgotten to put the oil in, but I had forgotten to drain it!
Not of my car, a Mercedes. At least I didn't start it! When I check the oil level it was really high
on the dip stick!

 

When rotating the wheels, I put the torque wrench on the floor near the car.

 

We’re clumsy lol
