check to see if the previous filter gasket was left behind when you did the last oil change. When two of the rubber gaskets are present, you get a pretty good leak and you can't see it til you remove the filter and check.

Where is the engine oil cooler on a ford explorer?

you screw the oil filter to it, if your filter screws directly to the pump arm housing, it doesnt have a cooler, the cooler is a small metal box in between the filter and arm with two hoses going to it p.s. if you dont see hoses near your filter, you dont have a cooler, i think they're only aftermarket

How do you drain transmission fluid from hoses connected to radiator instead of underneath car?

Just disconnect the hoses from the radiator and direct them into a container capable of holding about 14 quarts. Start the engine and let it run until no more fluid comes out. Hook the hoses back up and fill the trans making sure not to overfil it. You don't get the filter changed this way which I think is important to do and the most of the time it is MESSY.

Where is the oil filter located in a 2010 Camry?

Look in the Toyota Nation Camry forum. I have not looked at the newer Camry oil filter arrangement, but I think that this year uses a cartridge instead of a spin on filter. My 1967 Toyota Corona use a similar arrangement. What goes around comes around.


How do you fix a 1995 GM Tracker Fuel Filter and where is it located?

The fuel filter is in front of the gas tank. It has two fittings on it (15mm I believe). The filter is held in place with a bracket attached by two bolts (10 mm I think). As for the fix, the replacement is $15-25. The parts houses list two types of filters, one with push on hoses and one with threaded lines, so be sure to look first and get the correct filter.

How would you remove a fuel filter from the black plastic piece that is holding it to the frame in a 2001 Chevy Blazer?

if it is the same onw that I had to put on I would think that it is like a compressor link. you hold the fule filter in one hand and grab the little link that goes to the hose and pull the little peice towards the filter, if the hoses are off and the fule filter won't come off then ther is most likely a bolt holding towards the back or the top that you might have over looked.


How do you change fuel filter on Mercedes ml500?

I spoke to a Mercedes Service Manager and was instructed NOT to change my own filter. The filter itself requires special tools to remove safely. He also told me that the filter fitting designs have changed over the years and alot of the time not only the filter, but also some of the connecting hoses, need to be changed as well. Changing the hoses requires the back seats, floor, and wheel well to be removed. In optimal shop settings, it takes a qualified Mercedes mechanic over 2 hours to complete the change. I'm a pretty savvy DIYer when it comes to vehicles.... but this repair has real potential to become a Pandora's Box of issues. Sorry folks, but i think this one is better left to the professionals.


How do you replace in cabin filter f 150 1999?

I don't think 1999 F150 had a cabin air filter option. I have never seen an F150 with a cabin air filter, and all the guys around here I have asked have never seen one either.
