Buy a K&N oil filter for your Ford Ranger here: https://goo.gl/oBUxzc

Just a tutorial video on how I change the oil on my Ford Ranger. This video can be useful for anyone trying to change their own oil on their vehicle (not just a truck). The Ford Ranger makes it easy in that you don't have to jack up the truck to do the oil change.

Tools needed:

- Oil (number of quarts and type is different for each vehicle - 2001 Ford Ranger Edge 4.0L SOHC takes 5 qts of 5W-30)
- Oil Filter (look up your model's filter when buying it at the store)
- Wrench (to take off oil drain plug - Ford Ranger takes 1/2")
-Oil Filter Wrench (if you can't get the oil filter off by hand)
- Rags
- Gloves
- Safety Glasses
- Oil Pan (to catch oil coming out of vehicle)
