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.

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. -- bp On 11/29/2014 4:52 PM, Ken Hohhof via Af wrote: So on the Subaru engine the oil filter sticks straight up.

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.

Re: [AFMUG] OT I must be bored today
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. -- bp On 11/29/2014 4:52 PM, Ken Hohhof via Af wrote: So on the Subaru engine the oil filter sticks straight up.
