Farm Truck Oil Change

This page is a pictoral guide for changing the oil on the truck.

Step 1: Gather your tools and materials

You will need an oil filter, 5 quarts of oil, and a 5/8" wrench (I think)

Step 2: Open the Hood and Jack the Truck up

Step 3: Put some cardboard or other oil absorber under the oil drain plug

Step 4: Take off the oil cap

Step 5: Remove Oil Drain Plug

Keep a bucket of some sort ready for the old oil

Step 6: Remove Old Oil Filter

You can use some gloves with grips on them to get it off fairly easily

Step 7: Prepare new Oil Filter

Take it out of the box and wipe some fresh oil on the seal

Step 8: Install New Oil Filter

Make it hand tight only. Tight, but not THAT tight.

Step 9: Pour New Oil In

Make sure you closed the drain cap before you do this. Don't over-tighten drain cap!

Step 10: Run Engine for a few seconds to move the new oil around

Step 11: Check the level

Add more oil if needed.
