oil filter
is it possible to just change the oil filter without removing the old oil or do you have to change both in order to change the oil filter.

yes you can... also make sure that your oil filter Oring is still on the filter when you remove it and make sure that you add half a quart or so until your oil is back up to the appropriate levels.

yeah i dunno.. you won't drain all your oil but some of it will come out when you twist off the filter. so just have something to catch it.. obviously wait till the car's cold haha. but yeah you'll have a some leak out so grab a quart like said above
