I’ve missed this style of content. Gained a sub too!

I have a 93 Cummins 8.3C 300HP engine and it's a real pain to add oil via the valve cover. I've always noticed the lower spout right below the compressor fan belt, but just wasn't 100% that was for oil. Looks like that's the opening you used to refill the oil, so that will make my life a lot easier using that now.

Getting ready to hit the road this summer in our converted school bus with a Cummins 8.3. I'm getting ready to change all the filters and fluids later this spring. My wife was shocked at the cost of filters. Lol. Bus/Coach maintenance isn't cheap, but cheaper than repairs from neglect. Lol.

Oil filter leaked last time - possible reason. I always wipe the sealing surface for the oil filter on the engine block before installing the new one. The old oil tends to get on the sealing surface and is contaminated with small crud. That will stop you from getting a great seal.

Once again a two wheeled brother with good mechanical sense. Came for the video stayed when I saw the sweatshirt..... #oldschool like me!

Very informative!. Merry Christmas and safe travels.

Fumoto oil change valves instead of a bolt in the bottom of the oil pan. Used on heavy equipment for many years and I put them on all my passenger vehicles- way cleaner to drain and you have a quick and easy shut off if you need it. Not expensive. Good for you and thanks for posting. Love your massive black toolbox for the road!

Cardboard works great on your knees and back! Nice choice of filters.

You my man are an 😇 ANGEL🙏🏽

That was fun. Good video

Are used to work for the Boeing company building commercial jetliners and I used to give myself tours around the different areas of the plant and I noticed Donaldson filtration on commercial jet liners this is six and a row gym again hey you’re doing a good job man I’d let you work on my stuff anytime

That's crazy you mention Quartzsite. I plan to head there end of next week for my first DP coach. Reason why I'm watching your video on Servicing Pushers.

thanks , Hitting the road soon heading west.. See ya'll in Quartzsite

That's a holiday Rambler imperial, you know there's a fuel filter under the intake manifold that's a bear to get to,I hope you're changing that filter along with the coolant filter and are checking your coolant sca levels.

Great teacher. Thanks

You have a better Tool Time then Tim Allen! I broke down and got Wendy a car after all these years of having Ford Escapes (we have had at least six).

You need to clean the flange before you put the new filter on!! Tighten the filter down as much as you can, then back it off several turns, then snug it down

Very helpful!

I don't mind changing my own oil, the hardest thing about that job is getting rid of the old oil. Auto Zone and others always say their oil tanks are full, so they say. Great job$$

Very informative

Gorgeous video I never seen video filler battery 🔋 make sense

All joking aside though this is six in a row gym again I would be afraid to jump in that motorhome and drive across country you look like you do very good maintenance and you seem like a pretty neat guy like I said I like my arms all products they work real good look into it

This is the kind of stuff you need to know. I can't always pay the cost for service like that at places that can do motorhomes.I like to do my own. When I did go to places that could.I seen what I get for service at some high end place that was just unacceptable.

What would be really helpful is if at the beginning of these videos, which I don't see enough, is Mention the motor brand, the Horse Power, the chassis, whether it's Diesel or gas and (I know you mention diesel in your title) and if it's a 5.9, 6.7, 8.9, 12K etc. It helps to know what I'm dealing with. Nice video. good luck. happy travels.

Highly recommend when you fill the fuel filter never dump the fuel down the center put your finger over it and block that and dump it down the side because that’s the direction the fuels gonna go in and if there’s any debris some you may not see too small to see it’s got a try to go through the filter first or if you dump it down the middle straight to the pump Biden it’s not good it’s a six and a row jim again

a cheap plastic tote that fits under engine is a good container to empty the oil

Thanks for the video. We purchased a 2003 Monaco Windsor last year. I haven’t done an oil change yet. It looks like my 8.3 has two different oil caps. One in the front and one on top. Is that correct.

Did you tighten the fuel filter ? better than finger tight ? Excellent video, great learning tutorial. Merry Xmas ,hope Santa has a gift for puppy :D

I highly recommend Amsoil 15 W 40 anyway you have a good day to Amsoil will keep your engine a lot cleaner inside because it doesn’t break down and cause a mess when your engine your new oil excuse me first thing is got to do is clean the crap the old oil left behind anyhow Amsler is good stuff my old Dodge with five 9/500,000 miles and I’ve been doing 35 and 40,000 miles oil change of course I have a bypass filter and that’s a big thing and I use Donaldson air filtration fact is my air filter is a DBA 5202 it’s the same filter element that they use on M1 Abrams tanks and it’s nominal it’s not the same filter put the filter element sofor that engine

Check your particular engines oil capacity before doing this. My cummins ism11 takes close to 40 quarts or 9 gallons. That 5 gal drain pan without a shut off style drain valve would be a big mess. Also some engines have 2 oil filters, primary and bypass so some extra oil for the second filter is required. Secondly: a hand pump that fits on the 1 gal container can be useful in hard to reach filler necks . It may be slower to pump but no mess. Oil Hand pumps are found in Wally world too or any automotive supplier. Lastly: some oil filters have an inner small rubber o ring, remove the old one and replace with the one provided with the new filter. Always wipe mounting surface clean and coat the rubber o rings both inner and outer with a light coat of engine oil. Keep a rag over the top of the prefilled filter before going under and remove cover rag as you install. It keeps grit which can fall from the underside as you bumbled your way under. 1/4 turn with tool after hand tight is recommended by most filter manufacturers. Run engine 5 min than stop and add to full mark. Happy motoring.

Good video. I like working with my hands. But I don’t like getting my fingernails dirty.

The side bolt drains 5gallons the lower bolt drains the last gallon

Good night geniuses I got questions for you again about the fluid DEF in motorhome 1998 I get American Egles 8.3 350 hp
