Marriage is not a 50 / 50 kind of a proposition – it is an 80% thing - you do your 80% and she does her 80% and you might meet in the middle!
My wife LIKES to do things like changing the fluids on the tractor, greasing, bush hogging, as well as turning wrenches when it needs something done.

If your wife doesn’t want to / can’t remember / does not understand the importance of / those kinds of things then it is YOUR job.
You can force someone to change but only for a little while.
