    As we see, removing the drain cap on the oil filter housing is hardly worth the trouble. If you do, be sure to fit the new O-ring that comes with the new filter. And of course fit the new O-ring to the filter housing, and don't try to overtighten it. Finally, I sure hope the car was back on the ground when you checked the oil level!

    Wd-40 is petroleum and paraffin based I wouldn’t recommend it for the seals inside that master cylinder, it may shorten its life. These things fail instantly once the seals go. Brake fluid or Red Rubber Grease is a better alternative, even gt85 has hydrocarbon based solvents that can damage seals.
