Default New Video For The New Guys! (Oil Change)

Most of us don't need any help in changing our oil. In fact we take PRIDE in doing it ourselves! But for people who maybe have never done one, are new to the diesel world, or just want to learn more, I have made a video for doing an oil change on the 7.3.

The only thing I seen was ur filter wrench tightening every filter I've read is 3/4 past gasket touching I thought?

I always puncture. Makes everything easier. IMO a new copper washer for the drain plug every oil change is important. The 3/4 turn and the right torque on the drain plug against the oil pan is also a must. Also no overfilling the and at least a minute or two idle then recheck levels
