Totally stoked to see you both feeling better, and on your feet. I am very grateful for this tutorial on Tiny Dancer, I knew larger engines... especially diesel engines held more oil, bit I would have never guessed 10 plus gallons. I pray that the worst of the weather has been a distance from you, and very relieved to see you and family have been safe, and I continue to pray that all of you remain safe from that insane weather. I also pray that all of you have a complete recovery and healing from the galloping crud. Much love n prayers, Mayhem🙏💜
This is the best thing to wake up to…a new video of TT!!!
It’s great to see you back! Hopefully your high and dry! Alice are you well?
The reason manufacturers don't want you to prefill the oil filtre is because the risk of contamination, if you want to prefilled make sure you don't pour the oil down the centre hole but temporarily plug this up and pour the oil down the holes on the outer of the base, the centre hole is the main pick up.
Have you ever thought of fitting a two stage oil filter bypass system ?. I fitted one to my semi 3 years ago and swear by it. I still do my oil changes sooner than they recommend. So I did not do to save $$$ but to get better protection for my engine. I have my oil analysed every second re-fill, and so far reports have been very encouraging. Worth a look at if like me you like to take care of your investment...
Quite surprised 🤨 at the lack of cuss 🤬 words when I change my oil 🛢 there's a lot of cuss words involved
I worked at a truck stop doing PM services for around 8 years and I always filled up the oil filter and on ISX oil filter I had a gal jug with the side cut out to help drain the filter. I put the Oil filter on by hand with a quarter turn with and oil filter wrench
Martin you are a very good mechanic very clean you explain very nice that is one nice truck very clean
Great job changing oil Martin
I pre-fill oil filters & the seal as well!!!!!!!
I would install a plug into the new oil valve just in case. It has female threads to do that but that's just my OCD kicking in. I agree with snugging up the oil filters a little.
Hey Martin, when you change from one bucket to another just put your thumb over oil pan hole while its draining in first bucket, then slide buckets less mess that way
Good video, the how to videos are appreciated
For a couple hundred bucks, you can get the low profile drain pans on wheels, with a hand pump and handle on Amazon. Makes life a little bit easier! (17gal if i remember right?)
Yay!! You’re back!! 😁
Great video Martin. Had not heard from you guys in a few days and was going through cold Turkey . Yup buy a truck marry a truck. It’s all about the truck. Good to see you cutting costs and doing it all yourself. What’s in your pocket is best left there. Good to see you back putting out videos, have a great and a safe day happy trails and happy motoring.
Glad to see a video from you guys, hopefully everything is good with you on the home front with the weather and health. Hopefully by the time we see this you are back on the road and are able to safely travel. Prayers for your guys safety with the weather.
Glad to see you guys back.
