well depends on which spectra and engine size. But generally , you will take all the screws out that hold on the oil pan. then gently pry the oil pan loose. The next thing is you will have to slide the oil pan to the driver or passenger side to clear the oil pump and it will come off. The big question is, Is there a cross member in the way to stop you from removing the oil pan when you get it loose. You may have to support the engine and then remove the cross member . On some spectra's you even have to lift the engine up about 3 inches to clear another support .Any way make sure you disconnect the battery before you start this project.

4 quarts
twice a year
in the bottom of the oil pan
it is close to the passanger tire
The correct amount of oil needed is 4.75 quarts.
The owners manual states 4.25 quarts with the filter changed. Although 3.5 quarts usually gets me to the max mark when I change my oil (same car - 06 kia spectra 2.0).
Throw the car away and get another one.
Its always counterclockwise. isn't it?
4.2 quarts, 4 will be enough.
