Engine Oil Filter Replacement

  1. If four numbers or marks (1 to 4 or ▼ to ▼▼▼▼) are printed around the outside of the filter, use the following procedure to tighten the oil filter.
    • Spin the filter on until its seal lightly seats against the block, and note which number or mark is at the bottom.
    • Tighten the oil filter by turning it clockwise three numbers or marks from the one you noted. For example, if number 2 is at the bottom when the seal is seated, tighten the oil filter until the number 1 comes around the bottom.
