Due to the pressure in the system, when you remove the filter more oil will come out through the drain plug while it’s coming out of the filter port. If you only have one container, you can close up the drain plug, drain the filter, and then re-open the plug to get the rest.

What should I use to change the oil in my Ford F-150?
We’ll be using 5W-30 for this oil change. Now that you’re under the truck, grab a 15mm wrench and locate the drain plug for your oil pan. You’ll also want to make sure you have a proper catch for the oil to drain out of your F150. Position the catch away from the plug because the oil will likely come shooting out.
