03 sunfire need some info oil change
Tuesday, August 16, 2005 9:45 PM
I'm going ot be doing an oil change on an Eco and need some info.

What is the bolt size for the drain plug?

What size is the "cap" for the oil filter?

How much oil does it take to refill roughly?

i see your Canadian too...so that makes this much easier...no conversions.

you need 5 L of oil. it will take the full 5L. this sucks cause Mobil one only comes in 4.4 L jugs...you have to go and get the extra L at like 10 bucks...for half of it.

the drain plug is probably 9/16 or 14mm...most are.
and the cap is 7/8...22mm i think...best thing to do is just bring your entire tool kit under the car and try sockets till they fit. but those should be close. If you don't already have one, go to crappy tire and get one of their tool kits they have on sale like every other week.

Cheers.
