The House Boy is required to carry out a variety of duties and chores. These include daily, weekly, monthly and seasonal chores, as well as other duties that are required on-demand or when external conditions mandate. The Automotive Fluid Check and Fill is both an on-demand chore and a weekly scheduled duty which the House Boy must carry out in daylight hours, regardless of who may be present and could observe.

The House Boy is responsible for checking the fluid levels — including motor oil and washer fluid — on each vehicle at home and properly top off these fluids when needed. A stock of motor oil, washer fluid, transmission, and brake fluids are maintained in the garage and should be added to the weekly shopping list when stock runs low. Contrary to claims by one infamous house guest, there is no such thing as Blinker Fluid. Household vehicles are usually parked off-street in privacy, so the House Boy should remain naked during this activity, regardless of who may be visiting and could observe. A pair of work gloves and a funnel are stored near the fluids, and the House Boy is permitted to use these along with wearing appropriate footwear and a cap or hat if he wishes to do so.

Automotive Fluid Check and Fill may be combined with other vehicle maintenance, including windshield cleaning and tire pressure checks, for expedience or ease of scheduling. The House Boy may be required to perform Automotive Fluid Check and Fill away from home if a potential issue occurs with a vehicle in which the House Boy is a driver or passenger. He is not required to remove clothing in these circumstances, but he is also prohibited from adding or installing any clothing or covering, other than necessary safety equipment including gloves. A clear Raincoat Or Rainwear(Rule #166) may be worn outdoors at home in inclement weather during any automotive service.

Weekly Automotive Fluid Check and Fill does not apply to unlicensed or inoperable vehicles, recreational vehicles like motor homes and boats during the off-season, or motorcycles that a House Boy is not licensed to operate. Master will issue special instructions when these vehicles need fluid checks or other light maintenance. Additional vehicle maintenance like Tire and Wheel Wash (See below, Rule #278) are covered under separate protocols. The House Boy is required to properly clean up and return or dispose of all supplies after use and is subject to physical inspection or Spot Cleaning (See below, Rule #57) as needed. Any House Boy who inquires about, or attempts to locate, purchase, research information about, or actually use Blinker Fluid is subject to an immediate Laugh Position Spanking (See preview), regardless of who may be present and could observe. All other violations of this rule are punishable at Level One each, subject to the Cumulative Violation Rule (Rule #100).
