To drain the oil from a 2008 Ford Escape, you will need a 13 mm wrench to remove the oil drain plug. If you have misplaced the plug, you can purchase a replacement at Advance Auto Parts, specifically the Dorman Autograde Oil Drain Plug Pilot Point M14-1.50 (part number 090-938CD) for $6. Look underneath the engine oil pan to locate the single bolt that serves as the oil drain plug. Use a socket to loosen it by turning it counterclockwise, then remove it by hand. Be cautious and avoid handling the plug when the oil is hot to prevent burns. Take heed of this advice to stay safe.
