Every thread you've started has a question that's been answered time and time again.

SEARCH!!!

If you spent some time under your car as opposed to asking for handouts online, you would have found the damn filter... s**t, you could have at least Googled it. Oh wait, let me do it for you...

1996 Honda Civic Oil Filter is located on the backside (rear) of the motor by the firewall, about 10 inches above the oil drain plug and a little to the right (towards passenger side). The car must be on ramps or a secure jack (with blocks) so you can get under it. Let all the oil drain from the pan first. Wait 5-10 minutes for the filter to drain as well. It is mounted at a small angle so it will drain. Thus no mess. It's a bit tight, but I could get a oil filter wrench on the filter to loosen it. Replacement was easy enough once I found the filter. Not really visible from the topside of the engine.

The engine is located under your hood (the big thing that opens up in front of the car).

None of us really did any good, because you haven't learned anything, except for if you keep asking, you'll always get what you want.
A way to learn is to ask dumbfuck.

You could f**k up in this particular case by not putting the filter back on. Without the filter, all the oil will shoot out of the back of the block, and guess what? No more oil to keep the engine lubricated. No lubrication = bad.

Even tho it would be easier for the OP to Google it, google dosent always answer every single question out there. Granted, this case is a simple one and there IS an answer out there that Google wouldve helped, but not always.

no no youve got it all wrong.

he couldnt f**k anything up... he couldnt find the filter..thus... never removing it.

in cases like this though... if you arent confident in doing your own oil change... the dealer will happily do it for you for a fee.

most dealers for just an oil change are around 25 bux.
