Default changing oil... how the "f" do you get the oil plug out? searched archives and
found something about using a quarter. Is there any tool to do this with or should i just try it with the quarter? also, to remove oil filter, do most access from below or under the hood?

thanks in advance

Just use a wrench on the oil plug. I change the filter from the top.
