Just started tinkering with the new toy. Removed the front spoiler and bumper to do some fiberglass repair. Now looking to do a first oil change, but a lot is new for me.
My 1.7l has an Accusump. Bought it that way. Looking guidance on how to properly change the oil. Also concerned if a special oil filer is needed. Thanks for any assistance.. |

I started a type 4 with a 3qt accusump many many times after spinning out for about 12 years of racing
Big system but even running a qt extra over full plus the 3qt accusump in that car. It Never hydro locked. Worst case scenario you will blow a valve gasket ( I used to regularly after a spin) |
