Just changed my oil and have 2 questions now.
I was able to get the oil filter cap/housing off just by hand. Car came from factory like this and first change.4500 miles.
It was tough but i have death grip so i got it loose without tools. First question is, can I just hand tighten it back? Or does it have to to torqued?
I drove about 4 miles after and didn't see leaks so it shouldn't leak then, right?
Second question is I poured in all 7 qts and it's showing a tad below max line. Why am I reading that people are getting max readings pouring in 6-6.5 qts?
I have a 7.5 qt drain pan and when oil was out, it was filled to the every top of the brim. Even moving the pan from under the car caused me to spill alot which took longer to clean than the actual change.
