How to change the oil in a 1999 GMC Sierra with a 5.3L V8 Vortec engine.
I’ve prefer not to intentionally run the engine after I’ve drained the oil. I may not cause any issues for a brief run, but I don’t want to risk it.
Great. Thank´s. I used a screwdriver and a hammer to punch a hole in the old filter, drained it so i didn´t get messy removing it. 🙂
you could run it for a couple of seconds after draining the oil and before removing the filter. that way the filter won’t be so full, but you should remove the drain plug one more time.
Good Job, but please remember to wipe around the drain plug it’s self.
good point
Good job thanks a lot ;-$ save $39.87 for a oilchang
I’ve done that before, but I didn’t want to recommend it on youtube in case some one tore something up.
