i have a few questions about a 2000 Nissan Altima GXE.
first, how do you change the oil? i.e. - location of oil filter, any special procedures, etc.
second, where do i find and how do i change the fuel filter?
third, how do i change the headlamp bulbs, do i have to remove the headlight assembly, and if so, how do i do that?
i think that's all i need, for now, anyway, thanks in advance!

Nothing special about changing oil and filter. Warm the engine up. Raise the car so you can see the oil filter on the firewall side of the engine under the intake manifold. Take the plastic cover off of the oil filter if it still has one and put it back on the new filter if it doesn't break.
The fuel filter should be on the firewall in front of the steering wheel.

On 2000 and later you do have to remove four screws to pull the bumper cover away and remove the HL assembly. Try not to touch the glass part of the new bulb.

Step 1) Pull Up To Wal-mart Tire & Lube Express
Step 2) Request The Super Tech Oil Change, You Have To Request It By Name, But Its Only Like $11.95!
Lol!!
Seriously, You Can Barely Change Your Own Oil This Cheap, Then You Would Have To Get Rid Of Your Own Oil Doing It Yourself.

Yeah but then Walmart would poke holes in your tires and when you get your car back would mention how cheap they sell tires for.
