Purchase the correct size filter and make sure is is a premium filter such as AC/Delco, Purolator, Wix, or Bosch. Remove the old filter and throw it away. Clean the mounting surface and look at is closely for any scratches or gouges. If it is clean and not damaged, apply a thin layer of oil to the gasket on the new filter or it can leak.
