Oil Change Check List

RE: Purolator 1061

Yes, I use them & I like em'...& here's why, they use the weight of the ball bearing inside to control flow rather than being spring loaded.
This gives them a rattle when you shake them, so It's easier to tell if they're gummed up or not.
Thaz jus my two cents on PCV valves...worth exactly what ya paid.

I just finished changing my own oil! Wow, that was WAY easy. I honestly can't believe they charge $75+ to do a Mobile-1 change at Jiffy Lube.

I must say however, the worst part is carefully pouring my spent oil back into the containers. I made a little bit of a mess but not too bad. Might need a little Oil Dry here and there

The old oil filter came off with no problem, just unscrewed it and didn't even have to give it any pressure. The drain plug on the other hand was a little whore to get off. I ended up going BACK to Pep Boys for the 5th time in the last 36 hours to buy myself a 22mm wratchet bit and a breaker bar. Then it was like butta.

Anyway, VX running smooth, no CE light, no rough idle. TIME FOR CELEBRATION!

Thanks everyone for the help.

PS - Yes, I also put in a new PCV Valve
