Hi - looking for some help on how best to remove the oil filter. The oil
filter is like what's pictured below (hopefully it comes thru). There are 3
nuts that look like they should come off on the upper part of the filter: one
right up top (#1 below); one at the end of the hose on the upper side coming
into the J tube (#2 below) and one on the lower side (#3 below). I've tried
all 3 and all don't budge. Before I force anything, thought I'd see from the
group how best to detach the filter.
A couple of related questions. Does anyone know who sells the replacement
canister (standard oil filter?). I think I must have a small hole in the
filter canister as I'm getting a leak out the bottom side, but there's nothing
leaking anywhere up top at any connections or down the top part of the
canister.
Also - is there a spin on filter adaptor that can be used to make filter
changes easier? I have a 5 bolt 289 with headers.
Thanks!
