The first time I changed my oil
2019年7月4日 友達The first time I changed my oil, I used the filter wrenchto tighten the filter as tight as I could get it. Wrong!The next time I went to change my oil, I couldn’t get thefilter off. Luckily I had plenty of room around the filer,so I hammered a screw driver through the body of thefilter and used the handle of the screw driver to turn thefilter off.
- The GM dual-overhead-cam EcoTec engine has an unusualoil filter located on top of the engine. Remove the engineair intake hose. That’s the oil filter canister just tothe right of, and below, the end of the open air intaketube. Use a proper size wrench to remove the canister lid.This engine uses a special filter cartridge.
Locate the oil filler cap on the valve cover. I’ve seennewbies pour motor oil in everything from the master brakecylinder to the radiator cap. Make sure you have locatedthe the oil filler cap. Remove the oil filler cap.
When pouring the oil, you would be wise to use a funnelbetween the oil can and the valve cover oil filler hole.How much oil should you add? Look in your cars ownermanual. Most engines have a capacity of four or fivequarts. Don’t overfill the crank case. When you run theengine the extra oil will be blown out through the PCVvalue, possibly stalling your engine.
Start the engine and make sure the oil warning light goesoff. Look under the vehicle to make sure oil is not leakingout. Turn off the engine and let it set for a minute to letthe oil drain down to the crank case. Then use the dipstick to check the oil level.
How to check the oil level: Remove the dip stick, wipe itclean with a rag, reinstall the dip stick. Make sure thedip stick is in all the way or you will get a false reading.After a few seconds remove the dip stick and examine howfar up the stick is covered with oil. Most dip sticks havea "full" mark printed on them.
Note: I find the best way to dispose of the old oil is touse a funnel to pore it from the collection pan into thebottles from which the new oil came. When I get a big pileof used oil bottles I bring them to the oil recyclingcenter. Be sure to mark the used oil bottles so you don’taccidentally think they are new oil.FRP fan motor Manufacturers--https://www.ixymotor.com/product/frp-cone-fan-motor/
