Anyway...

I'm a noob at changing my own oil, but I want to take care of my Camaro myself, so I'm about to perform my first oil change, and I have a question based on the V8 oil change guide that was front page'd a while back.

It looks like the V6 oil drain plug is on the side rather than on the back, so is it okay to put the front of the car up on ramps and change the oil (basically, the car would not be level - the front being higher than the back)? My dad is telling me that the entire car needs to be level for the oil to completely drain out properly.

Please advise!

Thanks!

Yes that's the way to do it, with the front on the ramps......
