unbotl most of the bolts if you are going to do this yourself. leaveone end a little loose so when you drain the oil it will hit the pan on the undone end. clean the gasket off both sides , replace the filter, make sure thefilter is in right so you avoid problems. reverse order and add at least 5 quarts of oil. shift through gears and check fluid level hot. add oiluntil full.
