OIL FILTER
REPLACEMENT
1. Remove the oil filter with a suitable wrench.
2. Use a clean rag to wipe off the mounting surface
on the engine.
3. Apply a small amount of engine oil to the rubber
seal of the new filter.
Warning
Be careful that the engine and filter are very
hot.
4. (DOHC)
Install the oil filter until the rubber seal contacts the
base and then tighten the filter
1
and

a wrench.
(SOHC)
Install the oil filter and tighten it by hand only. Do
not use a wrench.
5. Start the engine and inspect around the filter seal
for leaks.
6. Check the oil level and add oil if necessary.
