Re: 99 windstar oil filter location

It's best to have the front wheels up on a SAFE ramp of a few inches. If you lie on your back and look up toward the serpertine belt ... you can hardly miss it.

After you first loosen the filter, use both hands to remove ... one twisting the filter, the other holding a large shop rag under the filter in an effort to catch the oil spill.

A year or so ago it seems all oil filters for the Windstar got a wee bit smaller in diameter ... the "cup" wrench that I originally used no longer fits very well.
