oil pressure sensor filter screen replacement

1. Prepare wrenches, jacks, waste oil pans, gloves, machine filter wrench, a new oil filter element, sufficient new engine oil, etc.

2. Vehicle preparation. Run the engine to bring it up to operating temperature. The vehicle is then jacked up, the parking brake is applied and the front wheels are chocked. Drill into the chassis to see the situation (be sure to understand the special safety precautions mentioned in the owner's manual first).

3. Drain the old oil. Use a 15mm wrench to loosen the oil plug screw counterclockwise a little. Do not twist too much. At this time, put the pot with plastic bag under the screw (put it slightly backward. To prevent the oil from spraying far away when the oil just comes out.) After putting the pot, continue to screw the screw by hand until it reaches a little bit. When dripping oil, be careful to unscrew the screw. Do not get burned by the hot oil. (It is recommended to do maintenance when the car is cold.)

4. Remove the oil filter element. When the oil flow is about the same, you can use the machine filter wrench to remove the machine filter, open the oil cover on the engine cover, and use the filter element wrench to unscrew the oil filter element counterclockwise. Unscrew the oil filter element from the engine bay, being careful not to touch the hot exhaust header.

Each time the engine oil is changed, it should be replaced together with the oil filter screen. The replacement method is as follows: ① Turn off the engine when the engine is warm, wait for a few minutes, raise the vehicle, and drain the old oil in the oil pan and oil filter. ② When the old oil is drained, use the filter wrench to remove the oil filter. ③ Prepare the same filter element or oil filter, first apply a layer of lubricating oil on the O-ring of the filter element, and then tighten it with the specified torque. ④ Start the engine, and observe whether the filter leaks at the rest speed. In case of leakage, remove and check the oil seal rubber ring to eliminate the oil leakage.

The function of the oil filter is to filter screen out impurities such as dust, metal particles, carbon deposits and particles in the oil to protect the engine. Where is the oil filter installed? The position of the engine oil filter is different according to different engine models, and the position of the oil filter is also different, but the main positions are the front top of the engine and the bottom of the engine.
