Oil filter bowl - what washers are inside ?

#1 Post by Kt66 »

Hello Everyone, we're starting to finish off the engine build ( exciting stuff) and I'm trying to work out what I need for inside the filter bowl (want to keep it original)

I have the long bolt and it's sealing washer. I then have a spring, retaining clip and the adapter which pushes up into the filter.

The parts diagram I have shows 2 washers between the spring but I don't know if these are rubber or metal ( my guess would be one of each) and they are missing from what I have so I don't know what I need....

Can anyone point me in the right direction on this ??

Thanks

I'm guessing this is a similar diagram?

Mart, thanks that's perfect. It's the same diagram but yours has the part numbers on it. Thank you.
