oil change

[colyork]

going to do my first duece oil change any tricks or cautions? Filter location what do you use to seal up new filter? I saw two plugs on oil pan open one at a time or crack one to "vent " I know these might sound like stupid questions.
Now the air filter is one that can be cleaned and reused how do you tell?My brother is a mechanic but I want to do this myself but I had those questions. Thanks Guys!

yup there's two oil pan drains, put pans under both or do one at a time(there is OIL IN BOTH). The oil filter in on the drivers side right behind the air compressor(see pic)

Have a 5 gallon bucket ready, it will almost fill it all the way up.

I thought those were the fuel filters, also what is the canister thats under the gererator on the right side next to the frame?

That is the pre filter for the fuel. Ther are a total of 4 fuel filters for the engine. The one on the frame below the alt., two at thr rear of the engine on the fuel pump side, and 1 for the flame heater, located on the fuel pump side, almost at the pan rail. As fo sealing the filters, The filters should come with a couple of different gaskets and o-rings. Be careful when you tighten the oil filters, don't let the canisters turn, the paper gaskets that seal the bottom of the can will tear...ask me how I know!

as you can see in the pic there are four canisters on the driver's side the big front upper one's are the oil filters
and the lower smaller rearward one's are the final fuel filter's.
