"Hi, I'm Mark Sullivan for Expert Village and today we're going to teach you how to change the oil in a standard internal combustion automobile engine. Check filler cap, check dipstick. I'm going to check the oil filter one more time to see if I can tighten it up anymore. Sometimes with components that you install, you should check them soon after the motor has operated for a little while and warmed up the component. You can sometimes tighten them up more. So we're going to really tighten up this oil filter again. Okay, the oil filter is tight, we have fresh oil in the motor, it is at the proper level and now you need to dispose of the oil properly at a gas station. That is how you change your oil in your conventional internal combustion engine."
