Changed XMSN external filter today
OK as you know I did the fuel filters a few days ago and all went well. So today I thought I'd do the XMSN filter. I had the tranny flushed at the dealer at 15,000 miles just because [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]. Well I thought I'll do the filter to take me through the interum (I'm at 30,000mi now) until I flush again at 45,000mi. I used a #58904 WIX from Filter1 for $9.08. I used a 7/8 socket (dont know metric size but 7/8 works perfect), changed O-ring, wiped off the magnet/base (which was very clean) and inside the housing, popped in the new filter and tightened. I also pumped the 4 steering zirks with grease. Filter service on this truck is fun and gives me a nice warm fuzzy feeling. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/warmsmile.gif[/img]
Has any of you guys done a pan only drain and refill just to freshen up the fluid?
