How to Service a Dodge Ram 5.9 Cummins! Detailed..no nonsense tips and tricks.

What happens here

Disconnect the aftermarket air cleaner hose from the turbo. This is necessary to access the old oil filter. Use the Hyper Tough oil filter wrench to loosen and remove the old NAPA Gold oil filter. Be aware that some oil will drip, so have rags ready. Once the old filter is off, inspect the mating surface on the engine block to ensure no old gasket material remains. Clean the area thoroughly with a rag. Take the new NAPA Gold Oil Filter and apply a small amount of new engine oil to its rubber gasket to ensure a proper seal and easy removal next time. Gently screw the new oil filter onto the engine by hand until it's snug. Use the filter wrench for a final gentle tightening, just enough to seal the gasket, not overtighten.

Goal: Install a new engine oil filter.
