Every excellent truck driver is always omnipotent, and truck repairs are no problem.
The oil filter is one of the commonly used maintenance parts for trucks and needs to be replaced regularly. If you can solve it yourself, it will save time, effort, and money! Below are several steps to replace the truck oil filter. However, if you are not yet proficient in operating it, it is still recommended to hire professional personnel to replace the oil filter.

1. Unscrew the oil drain plug and use a drain basin to drain all the old engine oil from the engine. Apply engine oil evenly on the new oil filter gasket for later use;
2. After the oil is completely drained, install the oil drain plug, remove the old oil filter, and then screw the new oil filter freely onto the oil filter seat by hand;

4. Clean the oil stains around the oil filter;
5. Add engine oil, tighten the oil cap after adding, and check the oil level.
