Good afternoon Just a quick question. Is there and adaper for the oil filter system that could be attached so you can go to the easier to use spin on filter. Thanks for your input.

 

No such animal, the cartridge filter is the only option.

 

You will get used to it. It doubles as an oil filler neck

 

Thanks for the information on an oil filter adapter. It was worth a shot lol.. BTW are there any other xf owners in the central Fl area?

 

South West Florida!

 

Well, Danimal, Kimpossible, Oldman, Stargazer .... they are all in Florida SOMEWHERE, I think Kim and Dan are *kinda* in "Central" Florida.
There are others, but those are the people I'm familiar with.

Yea, when you change the oil, just pout the new oil down the filter opening! I don't think that, in three years and two Crossfires, I've ever taken the cap off!

Just be sure to change ALL the o-rings and get the very top one on PROPERLY! Putting it up too far on the threads causes leaks!

 

I saw a front cover without the oil filter housing some time ago. Instead of the filter housing, there were two threaded ports for a remote filter. I believe this cover was used in the Sprinters. I have not been able to find the cover again.

When I'm back home, I'll try to find it (and the P/N) again.
