Morris Minor oil and filter change Classic Car a-series engine

Morris Minor oil and oil filter change.
This video will also apply to other classic cars using the A-series engine.
A brief video from a home mechanic on how to change the oil filter and oil on a Morris Minor. Use this video in conjunction with an appropriate workshop manual and your brain engaged.
Do not forget to double check you have secured the filter bowl and sump bolt. Bear in mind, oil pressure will need to build during the first few seconds of turning the engine over and the engine running, be gentle on the heart of your beloved Morris.
Always check for leaks around the filter housing and sump bolt;
A - after initial start up...
B - after an initial short journey...
C - periodically...
Sump drain bolt 19 mm socket (3/4 AF) torque setting not available
Filter bowl bolt 16mm socket (9/16 AF) torque setting 16lbf. ft.
(Apologies, video warbles on about a 14mm socket...)
The workshop manuals recommend oil changes every 3000mi and filter changes every 6000mi. With modern oils I'm content to leave oil changes to every 4000mi, but I do change the filter every time.
Oil; 20W50 classic (high zinc content), approx 6.5 pints (3.7l) which includes the volume of the oil filter.

Welldone good sir. I have not done an oilchange and filter on the Traveller so I was a bit aprehensive about the filter as I am only used to modern spin-on filters. So the issue has been nullifiyed now. All I have to worry about now is finishing getting the battle beast back on the road...

Does your car have the oil restrictor to counter the low oil pressure issues.

your channel is very good, and channel videos are very good. People are interested in watching your channel videos. But the videos don't reach millions of people, because there are some problems, Channel videos are not SEO optimized. On page SEO, and off page SEO not done. These are required to increase the channel. etc. then increase subscriber, Then it's time to monetize
