Before you start

  • The oil is hot-risk of scalding. Do not touch the oil drain plug with bare fingers.
  • Oil is an environmental hazard. Handle it with care!
  • Change the oil filter elements every time the engine oil is changed.

Procedure

  1. With the engine at operating temperature, remove the oil drain plugs on the oil sump and the oil filter bowl and allow the old oil to drain off completely.
  2. Use a vessel of sufficient size to ensure that the oil does not overflow.
  3. Refit the oil drain plugs with new gaskets.
