Tank? Engine oil is held in the crankcase except for "dry sump" engines, which aren't really dry, it's just that for them, the oil drains back into a sump and no oil is stored in the crankcase. But for your Mercury and almost every other street-legal, production automobile, the oil is mostly in the oil pan, which is that metal cover that's at the bottom of the engine. It also has a drain plug which you can remove to drain the oil. If you look around, you'll find the oil filter which should be replaced every time you change the oil. If you haven't done it before, it might be good to get a little experience by watching someone change the oil for you.
