Your service manual should be of help here too, although I find that more than 1 description of the same process helps to answer questions that only 1 source can leave.


Tip for the change: These things are very stiff springs, so if you have to usea lever to pry the bottom into the cup (I didn't have quite enough room), keep you fingers AWAY from the springs! Took me 5 months to grow that fingernail back . . .
