Initial oil change

1836 Views 6 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  Jeff
Typically, I get a full set of factory manuals when I purchase a vehicle, but my new 2001 S-Runner's full set of three manuals is over $200.00! A bit much. I'll probably just order the "mechanical" manual... Anyway, the point is, I want to do my initial oil and filter change at around a 1000 miles and I need the proper torque setting for the drain plug.
I'm ready to go, got my Toyota filter and the ridiculously expensive and overly complex drain plug washer ($1.25 Ea.!). All I need is that torque setting, help please?

Make sure you have a good oil filter wrench, the 4 bagger oil filter is in a nice little cavity which is best accessed by a contortionist who isn't afraid of getting oil down his arm.
