The point of the article is to try and help people figure out why they have low oil light come on shortly after oil change. As long as the motor is warm, and you oil the o ring, you should be able to screw it down by hand(With some force). But even if you use a wrench as you turn it the filter...

If its oiled, you should be able to turn it all the way, until it stops, by hand. Even if you use a wrench, you should feel it seat on the block.(It wont turn any further, no matter how much you tq it). Hope that makes sense. I turned mine all the way til it would not turn anymore. You can...

I know you offer a lot of support for members in this forum. Not my intention to be a ****, even if it seems like I am. Sorry.

Maybe Moderator can close thread, seems to have gone completely sideways. Just trying to help.

If your using a $17 dollar tq wrench I got nothing more to say about it. Neither should you???? Funny though: Most people dont even know how to use a turn dial tq wrench.

I have never had a problem removing a oil filter that was put on hand Tight. I have never had a problem with removing a oil filter that was tightened with a wrench or a strap wrench: LOLOLOLOLOL. NOT. If the motor is warm and you oil the gasket, and you can get a good grip on filter hand tight...

https://www.autozone.com/filters-and-pcv/oil-filter/dodge/ram-1500. They recommend hand tight??? I have never stripped or broke a bolt of oil filter by hand tightening.( Anything). Just like tire lug nuts: You dont start a bolt, oil filter or anything else with a wrench. The point of the...

If your not a car guy, you dont have tq wrenches. You would need a 1/4 tq wrench, not 1/2 for such a low measurement. Most wont have either. My 1/2 tq wre4nch is not something to use on a oil filter. My 1/2 drive digital mac one is. If you seat the oil filter correctly, you dont need a tq...

I hand tighten my oil filters, always have. Too many articles on this, but most say hand tight is fine. https://search.brave.com/search?q=dodge+ram+oil+filters+hand+tight&source=desktop. If you try it by hand, you will know what I mean. Until you try it, no point in arguing over it??? I can...

When you do your oil change do you even need a wrench???. I started out with a wrench on my first oil change. When I got my Low oil light, on the side of the road I did not have a wrench, so thats how I know I did not need one when tightening down. If you need a wrench to tighten it, you know...

Everyone who has a low oil pressure light had just changed there oil. Yes I did my first oil change, and yes I fcked it up. Even though I did my oil changes on my 2014 for 8 years and never had a problem. When I reinstalled my oil filter after I changed out my oil, it went on, what felt normal...

I used my 2014-Eco for 7 years for my tree company. My biggest GVW was 19,000 lbs, I had several of these loads with my tandem dump trailer. because it was used for towing heavy loads, my fuel costs dropped in 1/2 compared to my last gen Hemi. Towing with the eco is where it really shined on...

I started a new thread, hope it helps.

Like most I have done my oil change, and had the low oil light come on.???? Does not mean it comes on right away, but within a day or 2 it does. Not something you want to see at all. When it happened to me, I had just restarted the truck 1 day after oil change 6 PSI I think??. Pulled over shut...

Traded my 2014 eco in, so I could get a new one in July 2022.. 190,000 miles, ran like a top. make sure you get a GDE tune, or you wont be happy. Way more power than my current eco with the tune. Best truck I have ever owned, besides the air suspension I had removed truck was solid. The people...

50 miles from home at a friends shop did not leave me a lot of options. I tried needle nose pliers and a few other tools, but honestly the suggestion of die-electric grease seems to make the most sense. I tried with a pic and it started to cut into the wire.(The last thing I wanted to do was...

Well Now that its working, I am beyond myself. But to say I did everything correct would be a lie. Where to start: 1. On 1 of the Blind spot installs (15-30 pages in I dont remember but I aint going looking again), it shows a picture of a canbus that you need to plug into. It is not the correct...

I used Alpha to remove the codes when I removed the air suspension. No more messages about the air suspension. Hope that helps.

They look really good. They do have rim protectors also. Its a really premium looking tire. When it warms up I will go out and take a picture for you. Later.

Ill talk to him, and see if hes interested. Seems like a Great price. Thanks Grant.
