Oil filter on 18RG Sun, 28 August 2005 06:28 Go to previous message
Hello modders,

I've almost finished my 18RG rebuild and have primed the oil pump/filter etc with a 'Cooper Z37' oil filter installed. Next i came to install the intake manifold and found the oil filter was in the friggin way (too tall), oh well only a minor problem.

I went back to where i bought it(outbound on brighton rd for those in Adelaide) and told them the problem. 'Oh shit' they said! They had a hunt around and all they could produce was a 'Ryco Z158' oil filter.

Now the thread and diameter sizes look identical but it's about 2/3s the size of the Z37 and designed to be installed on later model corolla, camry, corona and celica. They assured it would work fine.

Just wanderin if anyone else has had this problem or if anyone can see why this wont work for me. I don't wanna destroy the whole engine now due to an oil filter.

Cheers, Pomey!
