Oil change splatter on 99 Explorer
hi all,
My daughter has a 99 explorer that I have changed oil on twice. Both
times have not been pleasant. The V6 engines oil plug is on the side
of the pan, and when you take the plug out the oil shoots out against
the frame of the front end and splatters everywhere. Theres no way to
catch the oil, or most of it and it makes a grand mess. I dont know
why Ford didnt just put the drain plug in the bottom of the pan,
problem solved. Anyone got any ideas of how to make this a better and
cleaner job? Or do they sell a elbow plug or something to point the
oil draining toward the oil bucket. Thanks for listening.
