[* black] When the drain plug is completely loose, let it fall into the oil drain pan with the draining oil. | |
+ | [* icon_note] Avoid letting the plug fall if you have an "homemade" pan. However, there is no problem with an oil drain pan off the shelf. |
[* icon_note] Watch the draining oil for shiny specks. Metal flakes in the oil could mean that there is a serious problem with your engine internals. | |
[* black] Allow oil to drain out of the oil pan until it slows to small drops. | |
[* black] Once the draining has slowed significantly, wipe off the area around the oil drain with a rag or towel. | |
[* black] Replace the drain plug and hand-tighten it. | |
+ | [* icon_note] It is better to put a seal under the drain plug (outside diameter 20 mm, inside diameter 15 mm). |
