Can anyone provide a picture or clear instructions on where to find
the oil filter in a 2001 Toyota 4Runner? Much appreciated.

I've changed the oil in my 2001 at least twelve times and I have never

I always do it from underneath, removing the skid plates.

The choice of oil filter wrench is important. I find that the fabric
strap type wrench works best (looks like
