The filter is pretty much bone dry when its opened, the filter was less than 6 months old, an less than 2K on Mobile 1 Extended. Funny thing was, I I hit the gasket with the drill, oil came up through the hole, so there was oil on the gasket.


Good times, hope to get the 92 done soon and back to porting

Was gonna say this earlier but didn't have time, on my 90 I changed oil for the first time since I've owned it, only has about 35 miles put on since I've owned it , been sitting, filter had serious marks on it from going on or somebody trying to get it off . I've got a huge set of channel-locks that did the job. Filter was F**ked but what do I care, it junk regardles. Well on the oil filter housing itself, where the rubber gasket would seal, you know?, well you can clearly see a mark just out side of the rubber oil filter 'O'-ring where the edge of the filter was contacting, so basically filter was tightened until the filter housing case itself had bottomed out . Stupid people born everyday . Unbelievable .
