here is my DIY service

first off, i pulled the plug and drained the oil
my oil pan uses a 10mm alanhead. pull the plug, be sure not to drop it in the oil pan, especialy if the oil is hot. certain pans, if u drop it into the pan, it will block the hole and cause it to over fill.



next, while the oil is draining, i go ahead and pull the air intake tube off, this is not nessecary, but does make it easier to get to the fuel filter.


then i pull the filter off, and make sure the rubber gasket comes off with it


then i take and fill the new oil filter up completly


and put fresh oil on the new rubber gasket


then myself, i write the milage down on the filter


then put the new filter on tight



next i put the air filter tube back in

then i put the oil filter plug back in


then i fill the motor with oil



then i start the truck, check for leaks, shut it back off and check the oil level
