Also, the first attempt at burnout.
2020 Chevy Corvette VIN #1001 has reached its final destination. The first production C8s have arrived at their final destination and are now being delivered to dealers across the country. This means that we will be seeing more YouTube videos with the mid engined ‘Vette. One of the first clips is an Oil Change piece from the ChevyDude channel. The oil change actually starts around the 7:30 mark.
We thought you might find it interesting to see the full instructions on how to change engine oil on your C8 according to Chevy’s official. Owner’s Manual. To return all oil to the dry sump oil tank, the procedure begins with the engine being turned off for 20 seconds. Next, turn off the engine and you’ll be able to do the real work.
Next, take out the engine oil drain plug and let the oil drain. You can do the same thing with the oil filter. If necessary, inspect the O-ring seal of the drain plug and replace it if damaged. Install the drain plug back into the oil pan. Tighten it to 18 lb/ft (25 Nm). After the gasket contacts, place the oil filter in the oil pan and tighten it three quarters to one turn.
Now it’s time to add new oil. Once you have done that, just place the oil fill cap back on the cap and insert the dipstick, if you took it out. Next, turn on the engine and make sure that the oil lamp is turned off at the instrument cluster. Check the oil level. It’s that easy.
This is all you need to do when changing oil on the Corvette. You shouldn’t do a burnout on a 500-mile (800 km) car. This is exactly what the white C8 owner tried to do. Fortunately, it didn’t work out very well.
