    I hate to post this, but I hope I am just blind and not thick. I have
    rebuilt several engines in my time, from bike to light truck. But this
    has me beat.

    If somebody can tell me where the darn thing is I would be very
    grateful.

    OK

    You can only get at it from from underneath. Safely get the car up
    enough so you can crawl under and you'll see it back towards the
    firewall more on the passenger side in a recess in thebelly plate

    OK. Thanks. I have to admit that I was at the local supplier, and did
    not have a lift facility.

    I did lie down and have a look, but it sounds like it needs a lift.

    TA

    I will try again.

    The oil filter is under the alternator, not by the firewall.

  5. What you want to do is go to www.hmaservice.com and sign up for a free
    account. Then be sure you have the proper picture viewer (see "Site
    Requirements") from Adobe. (also free). Then you can not only find the
    filter, you will find all sorts of nifty information for a DIY guy.

    OK. Thanks. I know the general area to look now. I had looked
    underneath, but EW engines are new to me. I was working on my old
    man's car (mitsubishi), and the starter motor was riight at the back.
    Just did not feel right.
