Mine unfortunately is on the bottom right next to the drain plug. I've seen pictures of the top one and how easy it is. Mine not so much.

My 88 Ranger is bad, wife's 2000 Explorer was worse. The filter is above the frame. The drips aren't so bad, but the initial burst of oil runs on the frame and goes everywhere.

Re: [AFMUG] OT I must be bored today
Change the oil in the parking lot of Ford manufacturing next time and tell them to quit doing stupid designs like this. When basic maintenance like changing an alternator means lifting the engine block off the mounts or it takes 8 hours to change a power steering pump, that’s a stupid design. That’s why Taurus owners get rid of their cars when they get out of warranty. Think about how many 1996-2005 Ford Taurus’s you see on the road. It’s why I don’t by front wheel drive cars but I don’t have to deal with snow.

You want the lights to run 18 hours on and 6 off (equivalent to the longest day of the year). Then, when you are ready to force flowering switch to 12/12.

The biggest problem with home oil changes is getting rid of the oil.
I used to do it but every time I would go to Auto Zone, Checker, etc…
Their oil drum was always full. I finally gave up and just get the
free car wash when I do it.

Re: [AFMUG] OT I must be bored today
My Porsche has the filter sticking straight up, but there's check valve in the
filter, so most of the oil stays in it when you take it off... which is still
slightly messy, but not bad.

Our Tacomas have a filter that sticks straight up, but there's a skirt around
the base with a hole that feeds a tube that comes out down by the oil pan.
When you unscrew the filter (which is a piece of cake because it's right there
front and center), you just loosen it enough for all the oil to drain down the
tube (which you've placed an oil pan under). When it's done, remove the rest
of the way, wipe, lube, screw on the new one.
