exactly…

kfcdave says:

would be nice if you showed where to put the oil in?

tischlerbmw21 says:

I could jack this up and change the oil in 10 mins!

apl175 says:

There is no oil to suck out from that location. Only a funnel-like well
that drains presumably in to the crank case.

Gixer750pilot says:

Why didn’t you suck out the dirty oil from the oil filter cup before
putting in a clean filter ?

apl175 says:

lol – thanks for the comment. Somewhere I read that direct contact with
used motor oil can cause cancer

polosretch says:

what size is the oil filter cup please?

rlekoms says:

Should add a a few quarts of the new oil into the oil filter housing before
installing new filter.

What’s with all the gloves, I’ve been rebuilding engines since I was 16, 50
now, and never had to use gloves. I guess if I had pretty nails i would.

Very nice video!! keep the good work

apl175 says:

@rlekoms good idea

Coolride17 says:

So does everything else , I don’t bath or marinate in it though. I’ve
welded,painted, and used solvents my whole life in a commercial
environment, but it’s my parents second hand smoke growing up that will
probably kill me.
