|
|
Just finding my way around my '95 BigHorn (no pun intended)
Goin to do filter change, is the main oil filter on the drivers side? it does look like it and noticed a leak from it today.
Is there another smaller oil filter, does this need changing, where is it etc etc
Many thanks

Thanks for all the advice.
Blue Print Fuel, air, oil Filter change now complete, I asked about the drain plug as I didnt want to drain the transmission instead oops.
Oil Filter is a pig to tighten but the advice on the bit of card is a winner
WaxOyl on the bottom now, all looking lovely.
Previous owner bodged window plastic protector thingies on with orrible glue to the paint work. I've got the plastic off but the glue is a pig, apart from white spirit any other ideas to remove it?? |
