  8. move oil catch container under oil filter / remove oil filter; REMEMBER SLIDE 4? wipe layer fresh oil on o-ring / wipe filter mating surface with clean rag / thread filter on by hand (as previously mentioned)

  9. install new cartridge filter into filter housing; replace o-rings part filter assembly / this type filter replacement rarely used today: early engine oil filters were cartridge (or replaceable element) construction – a housing surrounding a replaceable filter element or cartridge pour appropriate amount of oil into the engine ~5 to 5 &1/2 quarts do not overfill-harmful to engine / reinstall oil cap

  12. Note of QUALITY Information • only vehicles needing a 3,000-mile oil change are the quick-lube outlets and dealership service departments, 99.9999% cheap low viscosity “junk” oil is used • the car-servicing industry is clear about its reasons for 3,000-mile oil change, customers cling because they're largely unaware of advances in automotive technology; therefore continue spend un-necessary $ • longest oil change interval is 15,000 miles, “synthetic”; (please observe my class illustration) • Bibliography: "Stop Changing Your Oil.“; http://www.edmunds.com/car-care/stop-changing-your-oil.html ; Breaking the 3,000-Mile Habit ; Republished: 04/23/2013  (Original Date: 08/24/2010)  - by Philip Reed, Senior Consumer Advice Editor Ronald Montoya, Consumer Advice Editor ; N.p., n.d.

  13. pouring used oil on the ground is not only illegal - it's the worst thing you can do / a single gallon of used oil contaminates millions of gallons of fresh water, amounts equal to a year's supply of drinking water for over 50 people
