Detroit Series 60 Oil Change in the Newell Coach Factory Parking Lot! (Not Supposed to do This)

What happens here

Take the new oil filters and apply a thin layer of Vaseline to the rubber O-rings. This helps create a better seal and makes future filter removal easier. The presenter also partially fills the new oil filters with fresh engine oil before installation to reduce the time it takes for the engine to build oil pressure upon startup. Carefully screw the new oil and fuel filters into their respective housings, tightening them by hand until snug, then a quarter to half turn more with a strap wrench if needed.

Goal: Prepare and securely install new oil and fuel filters.
