My oil is leaking from the oil filter gasket and when i drive my car for about 10-15min and im stopped at light or something in gear the oil light faintly and flashes quickly, i assume its losing pressure from the leak. I want to change the gasket since its leaking from there and no matter how tight i put the filter on, it still leaks. Where can i get it and how do i put it on. Thank you.

I thought you just pull or twist out the gasket then put the new one in.Quote:

Using a flashlight, with one person on-top telling the person under the car how far to move to the right or w/e to get the bolt to go in.Quote:
