yep, that's where mine is. i have a 97 and i recently changed the oil in it. what fun, a screwdriver and a hammer.

 

thanks...in that case i will change my oil once i get home...thanks! guess i'll have to let you guys know how it goes on monday

 

hey no problem at all. ive spent the last 13 years managing a lube center so i pretty much know every place they can put an oil filter. im glad to see other people that change their own oil. props to you and everyone else that does.

 

thanks i've been changing my oil on my other cars, just got this one, and i couldn't find the oil filter

 

Ya, I hate brining my truck in for oil changes. I like doing it myself because then I know the oil that's going in and that I didn't "forget" to change the filter.

 

got the oil change done saturday afternoon...it felt like a summer day...i felt like an ***** cause as soon as i go under the front of the blazer to see where the oil filter could be...it says it on the access door " oil filter access"...i started laughing...anywho...got the oil changed, and enjoyed some beer while doing it...also the oil filter that was on it...was on there pretty damn tight...now i know why you guys were talking about using screw drivers...luckily i had one of those oil filter tools, made life a little easier...anywho got the oil change done, and just wanted to give everyone the heads up...thanks


****Edited for language****

 

Congrats on a job well done!

For those stubborn oil filters I typically will use one of those strap wrenches when space permits. I've had to use a screw driver on my dad's tractors before.

 

thanks ...wow...never did an oil change on a tractor...well at least not yet...lol

 

Nothing really to it, just instead of quart containers of oil, we use 55 gallon drums! Oh and the filters are mostly the size of a large coffee can!

 

damn thats crazy!!! 55 gallon drums!!!!! ****...nevermind i don't think i'd ever want to change the oil of a tractor...hahha
