Thread: Leaking Oil!?

look at the oil filter, on the neck, they is a sensor on the back side, remove the old one, install new one with teflon tape or thread sealer.

Oil will come out, so have something to catch it, and refill when done.

ps. take teh pass side tire off, makes it easy.

Doesn't get better than that ^^ for a how to on this puppy.



Unless you haz pictures!

you wont be able to get a socket on it, use an open ended wrench, its big maybe 21mm or 7'8th

Typically you can ...in theory use a socket if you can swing the ratchet. Sometimes a short extension and the ratchet coming down behind the CV will do the trick. It's possible, just tight.

20 minutes? i did 3 of them in 10 or less, used a channel lock as nothing really fits well in there, after blowing 3 of them, i now have a brass plug in the hole where the sensor used to be,oil pressure gauge to follow as next install.

brass plug 2 bucks, not buying another crappy sensor. both the autozone and pepboys sensor failed me, all with in a year, keep an eye on the new one.

Bill seems to always be on the ball!
