The wrong filter element replacement will not directly affect the operation of the engine to a certain extent, but the filter element model may affect factors such as the size of the filterable particles, which may affect the pressure of the lubrication system and the filtering function of the oil. Guidance and suggestions:
1. When replacing the lubricating oil, completely drain the old lubricating oil in the engine, and then refill the new lubricating oil;
2. Don't frequently change the lubricant brand, and don't mix different grades and different brands of oil, which plays a vital role in prolonging the life of the engine and keeping the engine in good condition;
3. The car mainly develops the habit of checking the oil every week. For some cars that have been used for two or three years, it is best to check the level of lubricating oil and antifreeze every week, and prepare some oil and antifreeze of the same brand and model on the car to deal with emergencies.
How to replace the oil filter:
1. First coat the rubber oil seal ring on the new oil filter with a thin layer of oil;
2. Install the new oil filter on the engine. When installing, screw in the new oil filter by hand. After the rubber seal is in contact with the end surface of the filter seat, tighten it clockwise for about 3-4 turns;
3. After installation, fill the engine with oil to the specified liquid level, run the engine for at least 3 minutes, and then check whether the oil leaks. If there is a leak, tighten the filter further until it does not leak;
