Get 5w-30 (4-6 quarts depending), and oil filter for your vehicle. get front end of car up on ramps or stands, find and take out the plug (bolt) for the oil - this is under the engine, usually the lowest bolt on there - it is located in the oil pan. The oil will drain - put catchcan underneath first. Then unscrew the filter (oil will also come out here). Replace old filter with the new one (rub a little oil on the new gasket) - tighten this hand tight (should be about 1 full turn once gasket contact is made). Screw the plug back in and tighten. Refill with oil. Turn car on - check for leaks. Turn car off, check oil level - add as necessary. (no not overfill)
