I wouldn't even put a fram filter on a bicycle

Top notch video keep up the good work

We have a 2001 5.9L diesel with 120K original miles. Hubby will only use Rotella T4 15W-40. I changed the oil in it for the first time and the filter isn’t accessible from below. I slipped a one gallon Ziplock bag from underneath the oil filter to prevent spilling. I can’t believe it worked. The oil pan plug was on waaayyy to tight. It’s supposed to be 40ft. lbs. torque. I worked on breaking it loose for at least 10 minutes. It was a success. No muss, no fuss. Well, a little fuss. Worth it though.

This procedure applies to the 6.7 Cummins as well. I have both a 2005 5.9 and a 2014 6.7 and it’s the same for both. I remove the intake tube and leave the air box. Easy and simple. Don’t go through the wheel well like a lot of videos show. Unless you want to do it the hard way. And hand tighten the filter. That way you can remove it by hand the next time.

Can I have one (5.9 preferably)

I have a 1999 Cummins L6 and my truck needs 10 qts plus also prime your oil filter, and my vehicle manual says Frequent short driving less than 5 miles, Frequent driving in dusty conditions, Frequent trailer towing, Extensive idling, more than 50% of your driving is at sustained high speeds during hot weather, above 90F. Change your oil every 3,000 miles, if none of these apply to you, change your oil every 7,500 miles or 200 hours, whichever occurs first. Straight up from my owner's manual. Use API SERVICE CF-4/SH or CG-4. SAE 15W-40, Oils with high ash content may produce deposits on valves that can progress to guttering and valve burning, a maximum sulfated ash content of 1.85 mass% is recommended for all oil used in the engine. I hope this helps. 👍

Fram sucks. only use oem. never go cheap on a diesel engine

I personally like to get the filter from underneath. The filter will be perfectly above you and easy to remove if you lay down with your head just in front of the front axle. For safety reasons I always make sure to keep the filter perfectly level when removing to avoid oil spilling out, hitting my face, and potentially worst case scenario getting in my eyes. I also found out if you don’t have a filter wrench a belt that you would wear works. I also run the Valvoline premium blue. Better than Dela and Nutella.

You guys are awesome teachers. I just got a Ram 3500. I don't think I've ever loved a woman that much.

My hubby loves his truck so much. It’s number 1, I’m number 2 and I’m perfectly fine with that. 😝 😆 😂

Great video, my S-10 Blazer sure uses little oil compared to a full size diesel truck :-) But I like such videos like this one, same kind I do on my channel. Simple things you can do yourself at home to safe yourself some money. *ThumbsUp*

If you pour oil in while it's on its side so the handle will be on the left or right, it goes in smooth and fast

Excellent tip. My pops taught me this recently, can't believe I never thought of it before!

Good job on the detail.. i especially like that you pre fill the oil filter. More time showing the babe pouring oil would be appreciated though..Haha

i use the oil filter cap you can buy for like 8 bucks they are aluminum and its for screwing into the top of the oil filter when you take it off the truck so if you have to tip the filter or anything it doesnt spill they are nice and they make them for multiple filters

Puts on gloves like if he's doing the oil changes but only records 😂 great video tho !

Sure works , also my Lisle filter wrench fits under the plastic wheel shield to just start it and finish : use some bar clamps to flex the plastic back

3:48 “nothing will come out of the oil filter if you unscrew it before draining the oil” if that ain’t some bull sh*t. I tried that and needless to say it was like a flash flood of oil...

You should giveaway one of your old light bars

dont forget synthetic you can go alittle bit longer as well for you 6.7 guys. not sure about the 5.9

According to Dodge/Cummins the oil change interval for the 5.9L engine following schedule B use (severe) is 7500 miles, not 3000 or 5-6000 miles. Schedule A use (normal) is 15,00 miles. This is when using the recommended full synthetic oil of either 5w40 or 15w40 depending on local temperature. (Most vehicles require the schedule B maintenance cycle due to short trips, excessive idling, etc.) Why would you throw out guesses on something like this?

7500 miles?? That seems so short 😕

I got a good chuckle at your opening statement showing us "how to properly change" your oil! As you were saying that I saw the Valvoline oil sitting there and then you showed a Fram filter and that's when I fell out of my chair laughing! Yea this video is 3 years old but I'm still laughing! Are you an actual certified automotive/diesel tech? GOOD LUCK!!

Do you have to change the fuel filter as often as on the Ford 7.3?

I have a 98 12 valve and I use Rotella oil filter and Rotella T6 oil and change every 6-7 thousand kilos. ... I get the oil at Canadian Tire the T6 full synthetic is on sale every couple months for $133 for 18.9 litres .. Hey what's with the hottie adding the oil ..

Boom first!

dave miller I was just thinking why not from under XD

im pretty sure i hear bearing tick or valve train tick coming out of that truck at 9 minutes i have three of the 3rd gens one late 3rd gen and two early 3rd gens and i had that same faint tick/knock noise it turned out to be the factory rod bearings are junk and can slide out of place so i dropped the pan on all three trucks and replaced them with good bearings and tick/knock is gone .... just saying i work around these diesels all the time and it definitely has a tick/light knock .. whether its fuel knock or what i said if i was your brother in law id get it looked at or use a mechanics stethoscope and i guarantee youll find theres a knock..

Reason the catch pan was overfilling quick was because you guys had the vent closed 😅

garrett turbos are better #duramax also a little concerned no oil came out of the oil filter?

What headlights are these

You seriously need to watch the video on how fkn. cheap them filters are. For anyone reading, if your going to be cheap with the filter, just use cheap oil.! any who; at least at half way on the oil change point swap in a new filter. The cummins will love ya for it.

Yeah man, Amsoil is great. Besides, the "change oil every 3,000 miles" is sound advice from the 1980's and not relevant today. My 2014 Ram 2500 6.7 change interval is 15,000 miles from the factory. I still run bypass-filtration though.

FRAM ON A CUMMINS????? Bro come on

I still don't understand why 5 9 Cummins owners like to disassemble half the truck just to get to the oil filter. Just go from the bottom of the truck and use a 93 mm filter wrench problem solved no disassembly required didn't even spill one drop of oil when I did it that way

Camera guy = not a car guy. “How many gallons does it take?” XD

Fram😨

I don't even have to say it

If you put fram filters on your vehicles, then you don’t care about your vehicle

As soon as I saw the Fram filter, I stopped watching.

Ever hear of gloves ?
