Parts

10 quarts of your favorite oil

oil drain pan allowing 12 quarts

Rags

filter (WIX/NAPA makes a nice one #57211) with O-ring
crush ring 900.123.106.30

drain plug is reused after cleaning it unless you want to buy a LN magnetic drain plug

filter wrench 74/76 mm

8mm allen wrench (I'll confess, I don't torque it. I tighten it enough to compress against the crush ring without stripping the threads in the pan as that can get very expensive)

Instructions here http://www.pedrosgarage.com/Site_3/Change_the_Oil_%26_Filter.html

If you do torque it's 37lb plug and 19lb filter. I tend to over tighten things so for me it helps. I reused my crush washer last time too, I flipped it over. I use one of those big yellow cat litter pail, convenient for taking to automotive store for recycling.

I do mine with 10 quarts of M-1 10W/40 and a Napa Gold filter for about $60.
