- If this video helps you, please consider subscribing, it would really help! How to change the oil with a dry sump oiling system. Including draining the oil, changing the filters, filling, heating and re-priming the oil system.
I spent quite a while looking at that blue spanner it just looks so high quality
Thanks! I have an entire set of those of all the AN sizes. I honestly don't know what brand they are however. They were a gift from the old owner of 9 Second Racing and I've really enjoyed using them.
Thanks for this! I recently got a 2015 z28 and although I won't be doing this work on it, it's good to get an understanding of dry sump systems and what you have to go through to change the oil.
Bro thanks for this vid. Iv seen these beautiful chrome engine bays at most big car shows but this is the very first time iv ever seen somebody actually work on them lol
Thanks man!!
Excellent tutorial. My hat is off to you....engine compartment unbelievable! Can you tell me the name of the reuseable oil filter & related parts please. What a heck of a great set up, i want to put your system on my C7 Vet. THANK YOU
You bet, Bill! The reusable filter is a K&N 5002. The stainless one is a Peterson Fluid System, as is the pump and the tank. Thanks, glad you enjoyed the vid!
So there Is no oile drain plug under that big oil container?
There is, it's just impossible to get to.
Ya need a dab of antiseze on the red oil filter threads and put scotch tape on the red 12 an wrench so you dont score up the fitting or paint it with plastidip a lite coating so it will fit the nut
Not a bad idea, thanks Richard.
So shiney!
How do you decide on the capacity of the tank you should use? Should you get a tank that closely matches the OEM oil capacity or double that?
For example: A Honda K24 calls for about 1 gallon of oil. Should I get a 1 or 2 gallon tank?
as much as you can fit. It won't hurt to have more
Lol that sucks! I have a drain on bottom of my dry sump tank
I do too, i just can't get to it very easily where it's mounted in the engine bay.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR VERY QUICK REPLY. I WILL BE ORDERING THE PARTS AS.A.P.......KEEP SMILIN
Why do they use fine threads ?? And why not a sight glass in the oil tank so you can see how much oil is in the tank ??? .
This was an enjoyable vid. I just started learning how dry sumps work. In a dry sump system, do you have a spec volume of oil or do you just need to make sure the tank does not empty? Or maybe I'm confused.
This system uses a 2.5 gallon tank compared to the stock system that used only 1 gallon. It's quite a bit more oil overall, but yes, you certainly want to make sure the tank never goes empty.
@@DoesItTrack So the car needs 1 gal, and the system _holds_ 2.5 gal. Does that mean you could run w/ 2 gal and be "ok" or do you absolutely need 2.5 gal to keep everything lubricated and cooled? Thanks for the reply and I'm really enjoying the channel.
@@josephcitizen4195 i could possibly go even lower than 2, but I wouldn't. Just no reason to.
@@DoesItTrack Got it. Thanks for the tiny Q&A. Keep it up and I'll keep watching man. Thanks!
What type of oil cooler do you use and do you use one or two of them
With that big of a disposable final filter, is there really a need for the mesh pre-filter? What advantage does it provide? I assume (based on the color of the drained oil and being a car guy) you change the oil and filter often enough that the final K&N will never be close to loaded.
You are correct, but I do like to be able to pull the stainless filter apart and easily check for material. With a disposable, you have to cut it open, it's messy, and not the easiest to see between the pleats. With the Peterson filter it slides out and is really easy to see the condition of the engine.
@@DoesItTrack that makes sense! 👍
Is it before or after the k&n filter?
@@Projectblackkjack It's before.
@@DoesItTrack ok that makes sense, do you have them at your oil pan to protect the pump from chucks?
Who manufactured the sump tank? Interesting internal layout with the breather and baffles.
It's made by Peterson Fluid Systems. Really good quality components.
Certainly looks the part. Your video actually inspired me to fabricate a similar style tool to drive the pump for an oil change. 👍🏻
I had oil come out of my breather on my catchcan. I notice my dry sump tank doesnt like being more than half full or it overflows into the catch can. Do you have any suggestions?
Great vid! I am debating dry sump vs trap door wet sump myself for a mostly street, but race-able build. Did you have to make that pump spinner tool yourself? What is the process without that tool?
Yes, I made that little Y bit that spins the pump. Without that, you have to manually drain everything. It just means that you have to remove more fittings. Not the end of the world but more time consuming and messy really.
what engine..is that 6a12?
Mitsubishi 6G72
@@DoesItTrack thanks mate
What pump do you have
The Peterson
DoesItTrack how many stages
