Take the airbox and intake pipe off to where it joins the pipe over the engine (FG), once airbox is removed the oil filter is right there and you can reach the sump plug by reaching down the side of the engine and over the K-frame. 15mm spanner = happy days, job done, no rolling on the floor for me ?? that's how I dump the oil on my clevo. Pan just fits under the car. The jack won't and I sure as hell won't either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
