When it comes to maintenance you have to talk about oil changes, which affect the future performance of the engine. Although oil replacement seems simple, but there are a lot of instructions worth noting.


Replacement of engine oil, so that the engine can not be completely cooled under the circumstances to give replacement (it is best to keep the oil temperature at about 10 ~ 30 degrees, so as to facilitate the old oil basically completely drain), placed under the oil pan oil containers, the use of oil hoses to release the engine inside the waste oil.


Unscrew the old filter element and add 2/3 of new oil into the filter element.


Apply a small amount of oil to the oil seal of the new filter element and hand tighten the oil filter element.


Use a filter element wrench to tighten 1/2 or 3/4 turn. Open the oil filler neck at the top of the engine to fill the engine with new oil.


Start the engine and let the engine idle for 5 minutes, checking to see if the engine oil pressure indicator light is off. Then turn off the engine and let it sit for 15 minutes and observe the vernier oil level to see if it is between the two marks, if it is insufficient please continue to add more.


Take out the dipstick and read the oil level, the oil level should be located between the two scales, and at the same time carefully observe whether there is any oil leakage/seepage at the interface between the new oil filter and filter holder, if so, please deal with it immediately.
