Just bought a 1990 Ford Ranger 2.3 4X4. Previous owner had oil overfilled. Truck didn't come with manual, and I can't seem to find the oil Drain plug, only the transmission drain and fill. Can anyone help me out. Thanks!

The drain plug is in North Dakota? That's inconvenient.

- In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
It doesn’t exist because North Dakota doesn’t exist?
