  3. Oil filter union installation
    1. Install the oil filter union.

      Standard value:T=45N.m {459kgf.cm} {33.2ft.lbf} 

      NOTE: Perform this operation as necessary.
  4. Oil filter installation
    1. Remove the dirt and foreign matters on the engine side installing surface and inner side.
    2. Apply a thin coat of engine oil to the seal rubber of a new oil filter.
    3. Tighten the oil filter by hand.
      CAUTION: Be careful not to damage the seal rubber of oil filter.
    4. Tighten the oil filter using the SST.

      SST 18332AA020

      Standard value:T=14N.m {143kgf.cm} {10.3ft.lbf} 

      CAUTION:
      • When extending the overall tool length by combining a torque wrench with the SST during tightening, tightening to the point where the value on the torque wrench reaches the specified tightening torque will cause the actual tightening torque to be excessive.
      • These instructions only indicate the specified tightening torque. If using an SST, it is necessary to use the following formula to calculate the proper torque wrench reading.
      • Formula T'=TxL2/(L1+L2) 
      T' Torque wrench reading [N.m {kgf.cm}]
      T 14N.m {143kgf.cm}{10.3ft.lbf}
      L1 0.080m {3.150 in}
      L2 Torque wrench effective length (m {in})
      NOTE:
      • This torque value is valid when the SST and torque wrench are aligned on a line.
      • Attach the SST and torque wrench so that they are aligned on a line.

  5. Engine oil refill
    1. Fill the engine oil.
    2. Install the oil filler cap.
  6. Engine oil level check (Refer to LUBRICATION SYSTEM (FA20) )
  7. Engine oil leakage check
    1. Start the engine and make sure that there is no oil leakage at the connected and tightened portions where the work has done.
