im trying to change my oil , i removed the drain plug on the front/bottom corner of the oil pan and a little bit dribbled out for a second then stopped. i tried sticking a skrew driver in the hole to see if something was blocking it and i little more came out then stopped again. what im i doing wrong?? its a 5.0 motor by the way

 

not sure about your car but mine has 2 oil plugs. one on the front and another one in the middle.

 

Take off the oil cap.

 

You need to remove the other drain plug also.

 

Remove the oil cap and the drain plug, should flow out right away if not you have a serious problem i.e. No oil, remove the oil filter too and see if it comes pouring out

 

haha

 

i had already tried all that . so i poured a little oil in with the plug out and it went right through so i guess there was just almost no oil , apperently my dipstick is a liar ! thats probly not a good thing haha

 

is your car level while your doing this?

 

if you had THAT little oil in there i would have throught your motor would have benn a goner.

just dont be like that guy that tried to "clean" his motor out by sticking a garden hose and washing it out ahaha (not on this forum, was another forum and the story made its way around)

 

Street: Make sure when you check it that the car is level and that after you shut it off you wipe the dipstick off first and then put it back in and check it. Probably already know that, but just saying haha...

Smitty that's hilarious lol.
