Replacing the Oil Filter
The engine, filter head, and filter are hot. Take precautions to avoid
getting burned when changing the oil and filter.
1. Loosen and remove the old oil filter us -
ing a suitable filter wrench tool.
2. Dispose of the old filter in adherence to
EPA guidelines.
3. Clean the filter header with a clean,
lint-free cloth.
4. Lightly coat the new oil filter gasket
with clean engine oil.
5. Fill the oil filter with fresh oil of the
right grade and viscosity. Be careful to
hold the filter upright during and after
filling.
6. Thread the new element onto the filter
header and tighten it by hand until the
seal touches the adaptor filter head.
Hand-tighten one full turn after contact
is made.
Do not use any tools to tighten the oil filter. An overtightened or damaged
filter may fracture or leak.
7. Start the engine and run at low idle speed. Check the oil pressure gauge; if no oil pressure regis -
ters within 20-30 seconds of startup, shut the engine down immediately. Check for oil leaks. If
none are found, let the engine run until operating temperature (180°–206° F) is reached.
8. Shut the engine down and allow 15 minutes for the oil to drain into the oil pan.
9. Check the oil level using the dipstick and add oil as needed. Do not overfill.
