Oil Filter: Service and Repair
Engine Oil and Oil Filter Replacement
Notice: Do not use a universal type oil filter wrench to remove oil filter cap. Damage to the oil cap and the engine may result.
Important: When performing an oil change, if the oil filter cap being serviced has a 10 mm yellow dot located on top of 32 mm hex P/N 24460712,
use only oil filter, P/N 24460713.
Important: Either a 68 mm, 14 flute oil filter wrench or a 32 mm socket must be used to loosen the oil filter cap assembly.
1. Using a 14-flat 68 mm (2.68 inch) oil filter wrench or a 32 mm (1.26 inch) socket, fully unscrew the oil filter cap from the housing. Allow the oil
to drain back from the filter housing assembly.
2. Remove the oil filter cap assembly with the filter.
3. Grasp the oil filter cap with the filter element attached and gently tap the filter off onto an approved recycling container.
4. Inspect the O-seal on the cap assembly. Replace if worn, cut or damaged.
Caution: Ensure that the vehicle is properly supported and squarely positioned. To help avoid personal injury when a vehicle is on a hoist,
provide additional support for the vehicle on the opposite end from which the components are being removed.
5. Raise the vehicle.
