Oil filter through the top

You all probably knew this, but if you disconnect the harness to the alternator, you can get the oil filter out/in through the top.

Re: Oil filter through the top

i never even thought of that honestly. i usually put it under the intake manifold and set it on a bracket. then go to the other side and screw it on. that's easier for ppl w/ bigger hands though. i have small hands.

Absolutely. But if one has to do it on the ground, it's much easier to go through the top, unless you can easily get all the way under the car (I can't)
