you need to raise that bar above the engine. It should have two screws and makes changing the air filter a lot easier.

Lube the rubber gasket with some motor oil on the new oil filter before installing. Hand tight on the oil filter is sufficient, wrench tight isn't necessary.

It appears you prefilled the oil filter but did not lubricate the filter gasket before installing, it’s a thick gasket so, I don’t see it folding, causing leak, also always check plug Gap before installing. The 7000 series on my old man’s Ultima ran rather rough until I did it first service and set Gaps equally.029…

Thanks. I was hoping grease zerts locations would be in your "partial servicing" video. Something I'll share beings how you shared and I do appreciate you for sharing your video. If anyone is changing blades and want to know if you have the S or star pattern without removing the blades. Under the seat is a pictogram with the decks belt routing pattern and also the symbol for the blades pattern.

When taking oil filter off I cut about 1 1/4” off the bottom of a milk or water jug to catch most of the oil. I have the Kawasaki engine though so you might get away with a little more or have to go a little shorter but it helps with oil cleanup

Seems like an OK video. I say that because, servicing also includes lubing the grease fittings. Right? I was watching so I would have a clue about where all of them are located. No such luck here, Something else I have always done from my car mechanic days 5o years ago. When installing a new oil filter, I always put a little oil on my finger and lube the rubber seal on the new filter. Or you could pour the oil into it over that seal. They have been known to have issues when dry. Especially on these horizontal mounted filters. It's not so bad with the vertical because you can fill the filter with oil and not have to worry about spilling any so the seal gets lubed. One thing never ceases to amaze me about these companies. Why is there no way to catch the oil from the filter on a $3k mower? A hole in the frame? or something. Instead we have a cleaning issue.
