Oil Change Instructions

Engine Oil and Filter Change

1. After warming up the engine safely situate the vehicle so that you can access the drain bolt and oil filter housing.
2. Remove the 4 bolts holding on the front skid plate and remove from vehicle, this will allow access to the oil filter and drain bolt.
3. Place the drain pan beneath the engine and use the 15mm wrench or socket to remove the drain bolt and let drain.
4. Inspect the drain bolt O-ring for any tears then tighten.
5. Remove the center square rubber plug on the underside of the truck to allow excess oil to drain from the oil filter tray upon removal.
6. Oil will also come out of the hole in the rectangular detent portion of the skid plate located next to the square hole.
7. Locate the oil filter behind a rubber flat retained by 4 half turn plastic fasteners on the front drivers side of the engine. This is accessed from the underside of the vehicle.
