Maintenance made easy for the C7 Corvette. What do you guys think of the oil funnel? Pretty cool, right? Check out everything used in this video here: 👉 Mobil 1 ESP 0w-40: amzn.to/3x02wKD. 👉 AC Delco PF64 Filter: amzn.to/3g0mI9v. 👉 Oil Funnel: amzn.to/3ipxvLW. 👉 Techron Fuel System Cleaner: amzn.to/3v3vXdc.
Thank You
You're welcome!
Do you have a link for the cabin air filter?
Yes sir! Right here - amzn.to/3PmMq7Y
Great to see a Real Car Guy do their own maintenance!
Thanks, Steve! The real car guys wouldn't have it any other way.
Front drain won’t drain completely unless the car is level. Quick jacks or a lift will solve that issue. Race ramps are great, I have many different sets, but not for this specific oil change.
One more suggestion, I was a Parts Manager at a Chevrolet deal for almost 30 years, use the Techron fuel cleaner +, that will save your gas gauge from the junk in the fuel!
Always professional and very detailed ! Thanks for info on oil change, and air (cabin) filter.
You make it really simple, and give the ability to do these maintenance items with confidence to newbies
(Me) ❤️ thanks !
Thank you. I appreciate that, my friend!
Good day Justin; thank you for the informative content, and always great to see your automotive beauty (ZR1); take care !
Thanks! The ZR1 is really something else!
Might be the best oil changing instructions on youtube!!!
Why thank you! 😁
@@HorsePowerObsessed you're welcome, thank you
👍👍
Nothing like a highway drive on a early am Monday, in Mexico, Pa.
High five !!!!!!!
Heck yeah! Hoping for no rain tomorrow to drive the ZR1!
@@HorsePowerObsessed luv it , let it rip Tatar chip !!
Excellent information ! Great recommendations for the Mobile 1 - 0W-40 ! Sweet machine ! ❤️
Thank you!
to keep the sulfur off the in tank fuel pump techron plus is a must according to GM expert. Also keeping your fuel tank low on a regular bases over heats the pump causing premature failure. Thanks for your time.
I really like the oil funnel.
Yeah it's a real game changer for oil changes. If you want one you can get it here: amzn.to/3ipxvLW
Great job, but can I make two suggestions, I personally always fill my oil filter before installing it( I like instant oil pressure) and after watching many oil filter tests I use the Purolator Boss PBL-11403 (it did the best job cleaning the oil and had very low restriction of flow at cold and operating temp!)
I bought some high quality magnetic drain plugs. Also sent a sample to Blackstone Labs, for analysis. Rear differential is short filled from factory. Drain the break in oil out and replace. Check your trans level also.
I already did the differential fluid but I was going to do it again just to ensure all the gunk is out and transmission fluid is next! 👍👍
@@HorsePowerObsessed I noticed my differential fluid was very metallic (2019 ZO6), and caught all the fluid so I could check the volume. I had babied it until then so I figured it must be break in oil. It’s quiet so I am sure it’s fine. The M-7 is not the smoothest shifting trans. Better when warmed up.
Yup. The fluid that came out of mine with 4k miles on it was nasty.
Great informative “accurate “ information. Even listed torque specs and part numbers. Well done.
Thanks! 👍 I appreciate it!
Very informative !! Great Job on instructions!! YOUR ZR1 IS BAD ASS ,DON'T EVER SELL IT !! TRULY MISS MY ZO6/ZO7 ,SHOULD HAVE NEVER SOLD IT !!!
Thank you! I don’t plan on ever selling her!
9:27 as ur filling the oil make sure the dipstick is on bec if it’s removed , the oil will seep out tru the dipstick hole and make a mess . Learned it the hard way
Interesting! Good tip!
Good vid,you saved alot of $$ by doing it yourself.those prices aren't too bad on oil,filter & techtron.you're very organized too.C5, C7, & C8 you need a C6 grand sport for a full house!
Thank you. A C6 is definitely in my future at some point!
And when I bought my '14 Vette used I negotiated free oil changes for as long as I own the car (Z51) and it's saved me over 1200 bucks since I bought it about three years ago....
Sweet! I'm always iffy about letting the dealership do this stuff, though.
If you ever use a different brand of fuel system cleaner, be careful not to get the neck of the bottle stuck in the cap-less fuel filler area - I almost did. I didn't intend to, but I didn't have a funnel with me and I pushed the tip of the bottle in just enough to open the outer plastic door and... it got stuck! I was able to get it out but it was a bit of a surprise. Also, I just bought an oil catch can for my Z51 - not an issue for your ZR-1, but probably still a good thing for the other models.
Dang! That would be scary for sure. I'm looking into a catch can still. Might not be "necessary" but certainly can't hurt.
Great instructional video Justin but i believe you have to have the car level on the ground for a accurate oil reading right. Yes that fram filter is a great upgrade from the standard GM one. Keep up these kinds of videos. Us Manual transmission guys like these hands on vids👍
Yes, you need it on the ground for an accurate reading. I know it doesn't look level there for some reason on camera, but my driveway is level right there. I checked it about 5 times afterwards as well anyway because I'm crazy lol
@@HorsePowerObsessed yea don't feel bad. Im crazy too! I keep mine at midway on the stick jus to keep it happy and not to full. I use the gumout fuel system cleaner and that stuff works great too but whatever we can do to keep the beastly motor clean and happy .
Exactly!
Thanks for the video, this will be my 1st oil change on my ZR1. Could you send me the link where you go 3 piece racing ramps? Thanks for all the other links...Louie
Absolutely! You can find the 2 piece ramps here: amzn.to/3LHLMBg and then the extensions for low vehicles here: amzn.to/3ymShq2
Thank you for the helpful video 👍🏻
You’re very welcome!!
Thanks for the info on the C7 oil change Justin, even though I don't have ZR1 I certainly appreciate your videos. I have a question on those race ramps.I wonder if you could utilise these for the C8 by backing the car up on those ramps and if that would work for an oil change. I don't know if you've used them for your C8 yet but just curious.
You're quite welcome! Yes, you could absolutely use it for the C8 and I will be doing the oil change on mine soon this way!
Thank you, very detailed, I'm n going to watch the Z-06 info video soon.
Thank you!!
The Black Momba, luvs fresh gold liquid juice ! Good Boy .......
🤣🤣🤣 Yes sir!
On your race ramp I don't see on there web site the extension your are using in your C7 oil change video
Here it is: amzn.to/3HAO5UF
Might be a Good / Great idea to change out the Oil Plugs to MAGNETIC Oil plugs. They are usually 13 mm in size. The Techtron is available in Chevron or Texaco gasoline. However it is a complete waste of time if you have a Direct Injection Engine...
Not a total waste. Like I said GM recommends this for cleaning the fuel sending unit. In my case with the ZR1 I have direct injection and port injection so it still works for me. I may change out the oil plugs in the future but the majority of the parts in the engine are aluminum anyway.
@@HorsePowerObsessed i surely appreciate your enthusiasm, today's gasoline has more than enough cleaning agents
Thank you!
Oh yeah!? Wow, so with the Techron cleaner there's no need for a catch can? Cool. Nice video.
Both together is the best way to do it.
@@HorsePowerObsessed thanks
You're welcome.
I believe the fuel capacity is around 15-16 gallons. Great video.
Thanks! The manual shows it is an 18.5 gallon tank.
@@HorsePowerObsessed you’re correct. Weird thing is I filled up at the 1/32 fill marker and got 14.8, I assume the fuel gauge has 2-3 gallons in reserve when the low fuel indicator is on
i like this corvettes more than the new ones....
Very nice video man
Thanks! I appreciate it, my friend!
I see u have a long line . Justin around ur block , google maps !
I guess I missed the Monday oil change special, nothing like fresh oil & filter change in the Morning ! Ahhhhh .......
😁👍 right?
@@HorsePowerObsessed 10 4
Nice job. Are you attending Corvettes at Carlisle in Aug?
Thank you. Yes, I'll be there 👍👍 Are you going?
Hi Justin, thanks for your videos! Very well done and much appreciated! Do you recommend prefilling the oil filter with new oil prior to installing? I'm not sure if the C7 dry sump system benefits from this.
You can but honestly I haven’t seen any reason to do it for sure. It’s usually a preference thing. There are a lot of cars out there that have the oil filters mounted sideways on the engine block and pre-filling those ones is not an option at all so it’s not something you have to do in my opinion
What do you think about UPF64R oil filter is there any difference between this and the original one? And you have done an amazing job I will put the same 0W-40 on my 2016 c7 Z51
Thank you! The "R" filter from my findings isn't really the best one for this car due to the PSI required to hold back old oil from flowing through without being filtered.
I always wanted a corvette until I bought one I'm to old to get in and out for it the C7 seems to be smaller than other generations
Ur
The description did you put it in order for the oil you show some thing but then when I went through the order to Amazon as a difference to listen to oil they give me the super car oil is the ESPN oil
Yes, they rebranded it. The oil is the exact same thing it’s just been re-branded.
Amazing bad ass car. Do you run an oil catch can?
No, not yet but I will be.
Cool video!! Just curious why didn’t you go with Amsoil or K&N cabin filter?
Amsoil is not as readily available and it's not something that GM specifically calls for. That probably doesn't really matter but it sticks in my head. If GM calls for it there's probably a reason and I'm not going to pretend I'm smarter than a GM engineer. As far as the cabin air filter I've always had really good luck with the febreze air filters so I just stick with what I knew as far as that goes. I may try the k&n in the future though.
@@HorsePowerObsessed I wonder how Tadge feels about that lol
Let's ask him! 😁
@@HorsePowerObsessed I would if I knew his tag..?
I don't know it either lol
Don't have a C7 great info
Thank you!
Redline fuel additive is WAY better. Chevron is good much respect for it. Use a fully synthetic media filter!!! PLBoss, Napa palatium, Royal Purple...and PREFILL THE FILTER FIRST!!
Chevron is recommended by GM so I’d the oil filter and oil I used. When it comes to warranty, why mess with what GM themselves recommends? Especially when it could void your warranty.
Have you ever use royal purple 🟣 in this car before
I’m surprised you didn’t pre fill the oil filter before installing it.
I have in the past and I don't really see a reason to do it. Most cars you can't even do it on so it must not be a big deal.
@@HorsePowerObsessed I always do it when I can especially on my corvettes. My new TRX has a sideways oil filter and on top of that you have to drain the oil cooler as well. That’s about 3-5 seconds of dry running the engine to get it primed with oil.
Yeah I've done it before and I can't tell any difference in sound on first startup so I'm assuming it doesn't matter. Chevrolet's official directions don't have anything about filling up the filter either. It definitely can't hurt but I don't think it's doing any damage being dry either.
Sorry didnt read posts already mentioning this....
Assuming a good grade of oil has been used in the past, there should be enough film left to prevent metal-to-metal contact for more than a few seconds.
Thanks for the informative video. Are there any issues with the car being on ramps and getting all the oil out? I’m getting ready to change my stingray for the first time.
Not at all. It makes the task much easier, that's for sure.
Since unlike earlier small blocks the plug is not at the rear, technically there might be an ounce of old oil left. 🤔 Not a biggy. 👍
Hi
If i have a stingray c7 do i need the 0w oil as well???
GM changed over their oil in 2019 but said that all of the C7 Corvettes could use it.
Are you able to put a link for the oil filter removal tool please? 74/76 that fits over the oil filter
Right here: amzn.to/3U5P7fO
@@HorsePowerObsessed thank you!
Watching now
👍👍
Nice 👌🏾 car.
Thanks 💯
Oh i so want that car... What a grand vehicle. I have a 16 Z06 but yours makes her look plain...
Thank you! I love the ZR1. It’s literally the best vehicle I’ve ever driven.
Hmmm maybf shoulda filled oil filter to prevent dry start.
Not a necessity. GM's official documentation doesn't even mention doing something like that. An oil change doesn't actually drain out every single drop of oil anyway so the car never runs dry.
Hey man what do you use to make the paint so shining?
The car is wrapped with XPEL paint protection and then ceramic coated on top of it.
Have used Chevron exclusively since 2005.......
👍👍
Justin - Make sure the tank is empty/ yeah that is the easiest part
Yes sir!
How many quarts does it take if u don’t have dry pump
I believe it's 6.
Hey Justin I'm about to change my diff fluid and oil in my 19 grandsport vette, question is it better to jack all four points of the car to drain it all or just the front for the oil then the rear for diff? Or does it matter?
It doesn't REALLY matter but if you want to get every last drop the car should be level.
@@HorsePowerObsessed that's what I was thinking, ill try it level, thanks man
You’re very welcome!
Hi
Do you have undercarriage scrape protection???
Yes I do. Sliplo. You can actually purchase it from here and save some money! sliplo.shop/horsepowerobsessed with discount code "horsepowerobsessed" if you want to see the video of the installation you can find it here: ruclips.net/video/uF4QOvakAu0/видео.html
What happens if you don’t drain both plugs?
You won't get all of the old oil out. One holds slightly more but you'd end up with around 4 quarts of old oil left in there.
Nobody mentioned using synthetic oil?
Mobil 1 0w-40 is fully synthetic.
How many miles do you go between oil changes?
I usually do it once a year. I hardly ever put more than 5k on this car a summer here in PA.
What kind of gas mileage does the ZR1 get?
I've had as good as 25mpg.
When was this timestamped? 😂
Shhh! 🤣
Why did only the 19s switch to ow-40?
GM tested it to work better and then decided to require it for the 19s and highly recommended it for all of the C7 lineup as well.
Makes sense and I just received the black out bow ties from you they look nice. I can't wait to install them soon will upload a video, thank you!
You’re very welcome! Thank you!!
Don’t all of the c7s have a dry sump system
No. The C7 stingray without the Z51 package did not have a dry sump.
When are you going to ship my order #1146???
I apologize for that, Ken! Those are actually sitting at the post office to go out tomorrow morning.
@@HorsePowerObsessed OK, Thanks, It is a Fathers Day present.
Awesome! You'll have it soon!

Not the best but not terrible either. I've had as high as 25mpg but average is around 15 to 16.
