1997 SUBARU LEGACY oil filter

G2M0093
4) Connect oil pressure gauge hose to cylinder block.
5) Start the engine, and measure oil pressure.
Oil pressure:
98 kPa (1.0 kg/cm
2,14 psi) or more at 800 rpm
294 kPa (3.0 kg/cm2, 43 psi) or more at 5,000 rpm
CAUTION:

If oil pressure is out of specification, check oil
pump, oil filter and lubrication line.


If oil pressure warning light is turned ON and oil
pressure is in specification, replace oil pressure
switch.

NOTE:
The specified data is based on an engine oil temperature
of 80°C (176°F).
6) After measuring oil pressure, install oil pressure switch.
Tightening torque:
25±3 N⋅m (2.5±0.3 kg-m, 18.1±2.2 ft-lb)
7) Install generator and V-belt in the reverse order of
removal, and adjust the V-belt deflection.

facing upward.
(2) Remove bolts which secure oil pan to cylinder
block.
(3) Insert a oil pan cutter blade between cylinder block-
to-oil pan clearance and remove oil pan.
CAUTION:
Do not use a screwdriver or similar tool in place of oil-
pan cutter.
8) Remove oil strainer stay.
9) Remove oil strainer.
10) Remove baffle plate.
11) Remove oil filter.
