Anyone have detailed directions and oil filter parts/supplies needed?
EDJ
uh, dont have written directions, but ill tell ya how its done.
1)put drain pan under truck
2)use a 14mm socket and ratchet to loosen the oil drain plug(be sure to remove your dipstick before you do this....well i do anyway)
3)drain oil into pan for about 10 minutes then replace plug(put dipstick back in)
4)unscrew oil filter(place small cup under filter,and take off small nipple cover so you dont get oil all over the place)
5)put new filter on
6)put 5.5 quarts of oil(5w30) into crankcase
7)let it sit a few minutes then check oil level on dipstick
basically what you need is...14 mm socket and ratchet,oil filter wrench(if you cant loosen it by hand), 6 quarts of a 5w30 motor oil(ill be switching to mobil1 full synthetic @ 20k)(you'll only use 5.5 quarts) and an oil filter( mobil1 filter # m1-102, oem filter from dealership #90915-yzzd3) and some paper towels if it gets messy for ya!! hope this helps!! oh yeah, drive your truck up on some ramps, as this will make getting to the drain plug a little easier!
