Oil Strainer

[H.I.M.]

I guess when changing the oil, you need to clean the strainer everytime, right? Is cleaning the strainer like changing the filter? And where can you get the o-rings & do you have to have new ones each oil change? ;D

Actually is better if you do not remove it tha often, once every third oil change would be ok, the only time i replace the 'o' ring was the first oil change then i realized it can be reused .
the strainer cover is very soft aluminum and can get damaged very easily by overtighten it, so be gentle ;D

I used to check mine every second oil change but it was always 100% clean so eventually I stopped bothering....not that I'm recommending that.
