I know some run a fumito valve but I've read some things about those that makes me paranoid to run one - so those that do it as it sits - in their garage - how do you not get oil jetting everywhere under the car when you release the drain bolt?

I was armed with a funnel this time as well and it still got me it's like high pressure?

I took the filter out first - caught the drippings - was off to a banging start.

Then the oil drainbolt - ARGGH

Now I have a big mess to clean after I finish. Any tips?
First...Drain the pan, then the oil filter. Use a large catch pan. Wear rubber gloves. No mess.
