So i want to change the oil on my car and upgrade to some higher quality oil. Once that's done i'd like to run an engine flush the clean out as much as i can keeping it running smooth.
Once that's done i want to clean to inlet control valve out and give the engine bay a good cleaning and shine her up!
So first off, i have my new oil filter ready but i need some oil to replace to the old stuff with, can anyone reccomend good 5w40 oil for a stilo. Looking for something of a higher quality as i'd like the car running sweet. Suggestions please.
Secondly, where is the inlet control valve on a stilo 1.4? Had a look around the bay but can't seem to see anything obvious. Is it where the end of my GSR induction fits in by any chance? Can someone help me and let me know how to get it off to clean or the best way of going about cleaning it. Cheers.
Thirdly, how to change the oil properly.
Jack up car on axle stands
Drain oil into bucket completely.
Fit new oil filter
Measure how much was drained and replace with new oil.
Is that it? Guides and locations of where to drain the oil from would be of great help thanks guys.
Lastly, engine flush. What to use and where to get it from? Any ideas?
Looking to do this sunday so responses are sought after.
Thanks guys.
