Servicing a Yanmar VIO55-5B excavator #2 Engine oil, fuel and air filters

Published at : 23 Dec 2025

This is a is part of 3 part series of me servicing my Yanmar VIO55-5B excavator
Pt 1 Hydraulic oil: https://youtu.be/lGKWbCS0CxE
Pt 2 Fuel, air & oil filters, engine oil: https://youtu.be/FaSByRg3Khs
I finished setting the hydraulic oil level and then swapped out the hydraulic oil tank vent. Next, I changed the fuel filter and water separator filter. Using a vacuum oil suction device I removed the engine oil from the tank, replaced the filters and then refilled the engine. Along the way, the air filters were changed.
I discuss KleenOil (?) filters and show how to remove canister filters without a strap wrench.
Pt 3 Final drive oil and air-con belt: https://youtu.be/PSkg5L9jlvI
At the same time, the cabin air-con blower fan was changed

I'm not a mechanic, this isn't a how-to video, it's just how it did it, in a muddy clearing in a rainforest. I'm not a mechanic, this isn't a how-to video, it's just how it did it.
