Now I start to drain alll the oil from the engine, tank and gear box.

First make a small 5 mm hole in the top of your oil filter before replacing it. This is for some air into the filter, for the oil that will go back to the tank, otherwise all the oil from the filter will drain in the engine bay...............

Then drain the oil tank, on the right rear side just in front of your rear wheel.

Some WATER will come first.................. THIS IS NORMAL!!!!

Now I drain the gearbox, I want to make a oil change on the gear box too.

Now we come to the nicest work from today, cleaning the oil filter area.......................................

PLease turn then new filter with your hands, no tools allowed!!!!!!!

Some brake cleaner will help cleaning that area, please use also compressed air for drying the area.

Arjan B.

Please secure the floor with some plastic, you will need it!!!!

See you next update!

This is great stuff, Arjan. Perhaps, when you're all done, the photos and instructions can be posted on John M.'s 964 site?

Arjan B.

John can use them if he wants. May he can use it or his web site.

Let him contact me if he's interested.

He Randall, Sober again.....???

I have the tool to replace the oil pressure sender, so I will do that tonight. It's like a wrench who's head is cut off. No space for a normal wrench 24 mm metric.

After that, I start to remove the valve head covers for the adjustment of the valves.

Arjan B.

Tonight I replaced the oil pressure sender.
I made a tool my self for replacing the sender.

With a little patience everything is possible.

Arjan B.

As you see, the new one is placed. PLease take care nothing falls in the hole of the sender when you have it out.

Arjan B.

Now we come to the valve area.

Please remove all the dirt around the valve head covers.
Remove all the sprak plug cables and tight them with some ty raps.
Then unscrew the nuts from the covers.

REMOVE THE VALVE HEAD COVERS ONLY BY HAND, USE NO SCREW DRIVER.
USE A SMALL PLASTIC HAMMER WHEN IT GOES HARD. gIVE A FEW SOFT BUMPS AGAINS THE SIDE OF THE COVERS.

The upper valve head covers needs to be cleaned very well because some dirt can fall in the valve train area.

Before removing the spark plugs, use some air to remove dirt out of that area. Then remove the spark plugs.

Arjan B.

NOW WE COME TO THE NUMBER 6 SPARK PLUG WHO EVERYBODIES FEAR AND HATED PLUG.

GUYS, ........NO PROBLEM, TAKE IT FROM BELOW WITH TE RIGHT TOOL.
SEE FOR YOUR SELF.....................
