    I'm currently changing oil, oil filter, air filter and spark plugs. I've lifted the gas tank in front, changed air filter and the two plugs under the bottom of the tank. But then.... where are the two others?? I've looked and looked, but can't find them. Someone told me they would be located behind the front wheel, but I find nada. Could someone please give me an accurate description, or even better - a picture? I feel rediculous :)

    oh yeah. i drive a 2000 model.

    Front, look at the engine behind the front tire top of the heads 10-14 in above the oil filter.
