I ❤️ that Lil tool to cap the filter, that will help so much
Changed oil in heavy equipment for twenty years. When they would get stuck I would just hammer a pry bar through the filter and turn it. After I changed my bosses pick up truck oil, as he started to drive home, sometimes I would say, “Dang, I don’t remember tightening up the oil filter tight”
I prefer using an end cap tool for the oil filter with a tilt head socket. Works great for me.
Great job thank you very much. Appreciate your help.
Thanks for the video!
Great stuff 👍
Best oil change video on TH-cam for ram his accent soothes me😂 and gives you confidence 😂
Lol, thanks a lot
Good video, thanks
FYI > I purchased a oil filter wrench and oil filter cap through Amazon; no mess! Both made specifically for the 6.7L Cummings diesel engine. If I could upload a photo of the oil wrench, I would - it fits perfectly under the oil filter, so to either loosen/tighten it.
they make what are essentially oil filter sockets and ive always had good luck with those
yep, end cap wrench works for me
Thx great video. I’ve been changing when the computer says to. I agree 8000 is plenty fine. The motor cost a fortune
Try Geno’s garage. They make a oil filter socket that get the 6.7 Cummins filter off easily. And they sell the plug too. Also, if you have an aftermarket air intake, you could just grab the oil filter from above.
thats exactly what I do pull the air intake in a few min and makes it easy
Dude, I’m sitting here looking at my owners manual for a 21’ and it’s not 8,000 miles. You must have the hemi info pulled up. It’s 15,000 miles. But 8,000 miles is a safe interval
LOL,,,,,I always change my one ton dually 2017 HD Cummins at 5000 miles or less but then I actually use my truck.
if you change your oil every 15k miles you're just asking for the engine to blow lol
@@transgendapenguinyep.
People don't understand that technology advances, that being said engines and oils do too.... 15k is fine. I know it's scary but it's fine as long as your vehicle is equipped to do so .....
@@joshuacolgin1892yup. These guys saying “I actually use my truck” 😂 calm down cowboy. All hot shot tow’rs change it at 15k and go half million miles plus on a 6.7
Can you please share the link or information on the tool used to plug the filter.
Links are in the description of the video. Here is a direct link to my "Diesels" products used in my videos - www.amazon.com/shop/tdrauto
Like the video. Where can I get one of those oil filter caps with the T handle ?
Thank you! Links are in the description.
I don’t know how find those links.

How did you drop that filter without oil dripping from the space the filter screws onto? Every time I drop the filter down vertical so nothing spills out the filter before putting on the filter plug, I get oil dripping from the area the filter screws on. I use a zip lock to catch that oil and it is a mess half the time!
Do you first drain the oil?
What about the drain plug gasket?? Does it need to be replaced? If so, what size is it
OEM drain plug has a rubber embedded on the edges, no gasket is required. Just inspect and replace when needed.
I am confused. At 6:39 the chart at the top shows oil change every 7500 miles or 6 months. However the first written line says change every 15,000 miles?
Yes it is confusing, but as long as you use full synthetic diesel oil like Rotella and go by the cluster oil reminder all will be good. I personally would not go over 10000 miles. These engines are not cheap and sludge is hard to get rid off
I just took my brand new 2022 ram 3500 cummins into dodge dealership to get a oil change ......literally right after I took it off the lot I get this tik ......when it is parked and I rev it to 2000rpm you can hear this Nasty tik.....
Gotta love them hydraulic lifters. Stupid they changed that. Failure point
They probably put to thick of oil in it, there is a tsb
Hopefully they only used required 10w30?
STOP!!! Go to Harbor Frieght. Get the oil filter vice grip wrench. It fits almost every filter including big Caterpiller hydraulic filters and it is much smaller to fit in tight areas. Makes this job a snap.
You don’t need to get your engine hot tot drain …if you wait 30 min 0r longer it all goes into your oil pan ! And there is no point to take your dipstick out
a flat rate tech is not going to wait 30 minutes on an oil change that pays .3
People should be educated that Cummins engine is not an ordinary engine and oil change should cost accordingly. In our dealer techs are getting .5 for diesel oil change and most have 2 bays so they can let it drain while doing something else.
Now why when I loosen my oil filter it goes everywhere??
Try draining the oil pan for a while before jumping on the filter
I've owned two brand new Cummins trucks. On both of them, the original oil filter was installed by the boneheads on the Cummins line with dry gaskets and at least 50 ft-lbs of torque. Fortunately, that was back when you could still get at the filter with the cup style wrench. But it still took a 24" cheater bar, and the gasket squeaked loudly for at least the first full turn. Why can't those idiots follow the instruction printed right on the side of the f%$kin filter??? I've been changing oil for 40 years....they NEVER leak when done correctly!
Don't prefill filters.
Need to for turbo bearings
@@kaneonbaker341 No you don't.
why?
@@bsdwizno need to.
If you look at the oem mopar filter, it has pictures telling you to prefil.
In 2022 Ram 5500 you can't reach to the oil filter, you have to remove part of inner fender liner, because the space is too narrow. Some people removing air filter housing to reach the filter from the engine bay .
