What happens here
The host then prepares the Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins Diesel for an oil change. He runs the engine for about 15 minutes to warm the oil to approximately 120 degrees Fahrenheit, which facilitates easier draining. He notes the impressive cleanliness of the 20-year-old diesel engine, with no oil leaks. He explains his practice of always changing the fuel filter along with the oil filter when servicing diesel engines. He then removes the engine oil filter from underneath the truck and prepares to install the new one.
Goal: Drain engine oil and replace the oil filter on the Cummins Diesel truck.
