My first attempt oil change on 2004 4Runner
Hi,
I'm about to change the oil and filter on my 2004 4Runner SR5 V8 2wd. I'm going to do it myself. Can you tell me what size metric socket do I need for the oil pan plug and how much torque to tighten it. To change the oil on this vehicle I think you first need to remove that cover (not sure what it's called) underneath the vehicle in order to have access to the oil drain plug and filter. Do I need to jack-up the vehicle? I hope I can do the whole oil change without jacking up the vehicle.
Thanks
Jack
