2.Drain the engine oil as described under “Changing the engine oil”.

3.Remove the oil filter. If necessary use a filter spanner.

4.Coat the seal on the new filter with clean, fresh engine oil.

5.Tighten the filter by hand until you feel it make contact, then tighten a further 3/4 turn.

6.Run the engine until it is hot, then check that there is no leakage from the oil filter seal.

7.Check the engine oil level and top up if necessary. The oil filter holds 0.2 litres of oil.
