My manual should be be here on Monday. I want to change the oil before then. Is there more to it than...

1) Warm it up
2) Pull the drain plug
3) Replace filter
4) Refill oil 2.5qts
5) Enjoy

Remove the dip stick when draining also. Fill the filter about half way up with the 2.5qts. Apply a light coat of oil to the ring of filter for a better seal.

Don't follow the drain plug tq in the owner's manual.
