• Q: How to service and repair the oil filter on 2000 Chevrolet Camaro?

  A: The appropriate car support and elevation methods must be used before beginning Oil Filter servicing and repair work. After placing an oil drain pan underneath the engine's oil Drain Plug remove the plug while cleaning it for any required replacements. Check the Oil Pan sealing surface before performing a replacement. Start by cleaning the Oil Filter adapter sealing area and replace it if replacement is required. Use clean engine oil to lightly coat the new Oil Filter gasket before installing the new filter which needs tightening to 30 nm (22 ft. Lbs.). Place back the engine oil Drain Plug while applying torque to 30 nm (22 ft. Lbs.) before you take out the oil drain pan. Lower the vehicle before adding fresh engine oil to the tank. After starting the engine inspect for any leaking oil. Turn off the engine because oil will spill back into the Oil Pan throughout a few minutes. Put the cleaned oil level indicator back into the oil indicator tube so that its handle reaches the top of the tube. Use the same procedure and check the oil level after removing the oil indicator's tip from the drain tube. Add or drain engine oil until the level reaches the manufacturer's specification.
