8. Apply a thin coat of new oil to the new o-ring.
9. Place the new o-ring on the oil filter housing.
10. Reinstall the oil filter housing by hand. Tighten the housing until it is snug.
11. Use the oil filter housing removal tool to tighten the housing further. Turn the tool clockwise until it is tight.
