I received a Moss (PN 235-875) spin on oil filter adapter via UPS today
and it doesn't look like it will fit my 1275. (12C /DA/H 21692) It has
a 8 3/4 inch blue (7/16 dia.?) rubber hose with the pipe thread adapter
fitting on one end and banjo fitting on the other. From the picture in
the Moss catalog I was not expecting a rubber hose. The aluminum
adapter block fits where the stock oil canister bracket is mounted to
the block. I can see no way the rubber hose will reach to the existing
banjo fitting location and I am concerned that the rubber hose will not
last. Remembering the mess with the original canister fitting I would
think that this is a simple and popular modification. Has anyone done
this, recently, with the Moss parts kit and if so am I missing something
obvious?
Stand by; tomorrow I am going to work on the brakes :)
Thanks,
Mark Endicott
