Wrenching on the Diesel Kubota RTV? Already?

What happens here

The presenter takes a new Kubota engine oil filter, applies a thin film of fresh engine oil to its rubber gasket to ensure a good seal, and then threads it into place. He hand-tightens the filter as much as possible before using the 80mm filter wrench to give it an additional quarter turn, recommending this method to prevent overtightening and potential leaks.

Goal: A new engine oil filter is installed by lubricating its gasket and hand-tightening it, followed by a quarter turn with the filter wrench to ensure a secure seal.

Tools and materials

  • 80mm Filter Wrench
  • Engine Oil Shell Rotella
