    Yeah, they said synthetic is not included on the coupon and it just takes $10 off their price. I should have read the fine print before I went but I didn't. :annoyed:

    Thanks man, that's inspiring to say the least.

    So I removed and replace the filter before draining the erl?

    Make sure you go get a full body lamination done to yourself first, there will be some dirt/grease/oil that gets on you. :D





    JK, it starts with the easy stuff and you move from there. :thumbsup:

    Just don't drain your transmission fluid!

    Sounds good. Open valve then while it's draining pull the filter. You can use a small tube on the drain under the filter to catch the oil that runs out of the filter. Either way have something under there to catch the oil that comes out. You'll see the drain on the side around the filter.

    I drain, then replace the filter while it completely drains, then go back, and this is important, remember to put the drain plug back in ;). BTW, do you have a replacement drain plug crush washer?

    I use a large ziplock bag and wedge it under the filter drain and on top of the compressor, then put the filter in the bag to, throw away.
