The reason for smearing oil on the oil filter gasket is so it does not seize up so you can remove it next time.

Been proven time & time again, increasing oil thickness doesn't benefit a modern engine. Mostly counter productive. Engineers spent thousands of hours & hundreds of thousands testing km's in all sorts of conditions regardless of km's stick to manufacture specs. Which provides optimal protection, flow, fuel economy, timing chain wear, etc N/A FG's call for 5w30 in petrol 6 & EcoLpi form Green top & turbo called for a 15w40 mineral, or if you wanted a better alternative 5w40 for more instantaneous flow, after all 5w40, 10w40 & 15w40 will all flow the same when hot. I've sent off numerous oil samples of varying grades only to have the samples come out showing the correct 5w30 providing better wear protection, tbn retention, good flashpoint, zinc, etc. Over a 5w40 *Stick to genuine Motorcraft oil filters (or the manufacturer of them Mann-Hummel)

Sadly I have to tighten mine with a spanner because back in the day a workshop ugga dugga’d my filter on and ruined it. Now if it’s not tight enough it spills oil everywhere.

Nice, to correct you the “w” doesn’t stand for weight it stands for winter. The two numbers represent a winter viscosity and a summer viscosity. Again nice vid.

Yeah I’ve actually thought about doing a video on what engine oil grading means. A lot of people simply don’t understand what the numbers mean or how that relates to their engine.

i think if a guy can't change oil for his car he doesn't deserve to have a car, because it's as easy as filling petrol.

how much oil did you put in? lube guides recommend 6.8 litres including filter but in my personal experience that is always to much. in my 2013 fg barra 195, 6.6 litres of 5w-30 (including filter) is about right.

Hi FG Mods, nice video and a good idea is to fill your oil filter and let it sit for a bit to soak in before you put it back on. Cheers

Oil filter does not need to be done up with a tool way to tight
