Hey,
I got my 2.8L oil cooler & filter setup changed to the 3.1L style when I got my exhaust done.
It ran fine for about a week, then it started leaking oil from around the filter base (or somewhere close to it).
I made sure all the bolts were tight, and the filter was too.
So I thought maybe as they had re-used the oil filter when they did the swap, the seal wasn't working properly.
I just changed the filter to a new Z402, started it up and it leaked out the base of the oil filter very quickly.
Managed to tighten it a bit more, and now at idle it isn't leaking.
I had to really give it a good twist to tighten it some more, and it doesn't seem like it should be so hard to tighten up.
I'm not using any tools, just hand-tightening.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Andy.
