I've scrapped several engines....... can't believe I never removed one of these to keep around......
But now I need one.
The o-ring is leaking badly on mine and I attempted to replace it........ but unfortunately, in trying to turn the torx bolt fastener that holds the assembly in place...... I've stripped the torx grooves. Someone before me REALLY torqued this down way too tight. Looks like I'll be having to notch the torx bolt and tear it up using an air hammer with chisel tip to remove it.
So, I'm gonna need a replacement. If anyone has a junk block laying around that I could snag this adaptor and bolt off of, I'd be super grateful.
It takes a T-60 bit to get the thing off.
Or, if anyone has an older 4.0 block with the standard oil filter mount, I could use that as well.
