Re: big overhaull
of for now, lets change the sparks plugs.
start by remove the air filter cap. remove the bottom of the filter case. and now remove the filter case bracket. theres is space now, right? so now, unlock all of the screws of the high voltage thing ( forgot the name soozzz ) and remove it. now, fun part, use a mid_long key to remove the sparks. for the front and center ones, i use this one : and for the rear one, i use this one : |

Re: big overhaull
now, lets change the oil.
first, open oil feed plug. remove the gauge too. now put someting bellow the engine to keep the old oil. open the plug and wait to drain all old oil. ( it's a 17 wrench ) during the leak, clean plugs and gauge. change the plug seal. and reinstal it when draining is complete. now, use a good wrench to remove the old oil filter, and replace it. it's ok to feel whit good new oil. check the level! ( 6.5L ) when ok, instal feel plug, gauge and all necessary things. start up the engine and check if there is no leak. check if all is ok, and if you dont have forgot some tool in the engine bay. clean all a little. |

Re: big overhaull
Naru, give you 9.99 out of 10 for that job, well done.
95 models are the best. Harvey.

I second the above. Congratulation, you have put a lot of effort into this. After some slight editing it should certainly be included in the "how too" section. Make sure you receive this just reward and recognition.

Re: big overhaull
This all is stuff I should definitely know how to do and I have watched svxfiles do it many times but it never really sank in. Now I know where to look if I ever move away from the area..
Thanks for the details and the pics.
