[Mew]

god work Di,very smart for a chick

[Haribo!]

alot of oil or just abit? i mean is it gonna pour out until i put the new one on?

[taxiboy]

IT IS GOING TO PISS OUT SO DONT TOUCH IT until you drain the oil from the sump plug!!!!

Like Dinx said, why go to the trouble of a new filter without putting new oil in?

There will be a fair bit, not just a couple of drips. Get ready to catch it with a bucket!

jack ya car, put basin under the sump, take plug out, go make a cuppa, check all the oil is out,take filter off, put shiney new one on with a little oil around the seal,pour in new oil, lower car, listen to it say "thank you daddy"..whilst your being nice to it, new air filter, dizzy, rotor and plugs wud be welcomed too..

Warm the engine up a bit first and it will come out easier/quicker too!
