[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1417559, member: 19880"] Remove oil fill cover - check Remove plug to drain oil - check Remove oil filter - check Install and properly tighten new oil filter - check Add four litres of synthetic oil...?? About halfway through the fourth litre when the oil level wasn't coming up on the sight glass, I realized that I left out a step. At least the engine was well flushed. Unfortunately, it was draining into a container with a couple changes worth of old used oil in it. Go back to store and buy another four litres of synthetic oil - check (credit card) Install and tighten drain bolt - CHECK!!! Fill with another four litres of synthetic oil. - check! Verify level, replace fill cover and go for a ride!! [/QUOTE]
