Step by step , filmed up close , in great detail with instructional narration you need to know , including relevant part numbers and torque settings .Always refer to the manufacturers shop manual for all recommended settings and specifications .This video is for general knowledge and entertainment only . I am not a professional mechanic and offer my opinions and advice based on years of learning the hard way and asking those who know the right way .The main goal is to always " Try'an Learn ".
* Amended information : The filter case drain bolt mentioned in this video is a contentious issue .
Its purpose is a connection point for oil pressure testing not specifically a drain point for the oil filter housing .It is also a weak point in the case and is easily over torqued which typically leads to cracking the housing . Many people recommend to leave it in place and not to use it as a drain point.
I've never had an issue and will continue to use it for both draining oil and as a oil pressure test point .
I suggest you do what ever you think works best for you .
