Anyone see this? Oil filter adapter for mounting pressure gauge.
#11
Just installed this over the weekend.
I had an initial issue with oil seepage. I'm not sure if it was because I overtorqued the o-ring or something else. I removed it, placed a thin bead of "The Right Stuff" gasket maker on the outside of the o-ring and then replaced using less torque.
So far so good.
The downside that I see is that there is not enough clearance between the oil filter and the splash pan. I had to leave out the rear pax side bolt fastening screw. Some cutting with a Dremmel might be in order to free up some space and get that bolt back in place.
