It's the experienced readers/posters that are too lazy to use Search Tab, or the myriad facets on info that can found on the top lists of any page, that tend to get gooned.

Gentle on the bolt plug removal and reinstall. I rec'd a new washer on the drain plug. I use a piece of cardboard, folded like a funnel, to give the gushing oil an 'avenue' of drain, aimed at a large catch pan. And, some newspapers spread under the pan.

I don't lift it as I can just slud my 6'1" 215 lb old bod underneath, though the first time was tight and confining. If you do lift it, use ramps and/or good jack stands and do not trust any jack when you are under it.
