    1. Open the drain valve (2). Allow the oil to drain into a suitable container.

    1. Remove the filter element (3). Discard the used filter element.

    1. Clean the filter housing base. All of the old filter seal must be removed from the filter housing base.

    1. Apply a thin coat of engine oil to the seal of the new filter element.

    1. Install the new filter by hand. When the gasket contacts the filter base, turn the filter by 270 degrees more. This will tighten the filter sufficiently.

      Every new oil filter has rotation index marks that are spaced at 90 degree increments. Use the rotation index marks as a guide for tightening the oil filter.
