Be sure to follow these steps when changing your oil:
1. Warm up the engine: This helps thin the oil and allows it to drain more efficiently.
2. Park on level ground: This ensures accurate oil level readings.
3. Locate the oil drain plug: It's usually located on the bottom of the oil pan.
4. Place a drain pan under the drain plug: This will catch the used oil.
5. Remove the drain plug: Be cautious, as the oil will be hot.
6. Let the oil drain completely: This may take a few minutes.
7. Replace the drain plug: Tighten it securely, but avoid overtightening.
8. Remove the oil filter: Use an oil filter wrench if necessary.
9. Install the new oil filter: Make sure the gasket is clean and lubricate it with a small amount of fresh oil.
10. Add new oil: Pour the correct amount of oil into the engine.
11. Check the oil level: Use the dipstick to ensure the oil is at the correct level.
12. Start the engine: Check for leaks and ensure the oil pressure light goes out quickly.
Always dispose of used oil responsibly.
