First I have to remove one of the original oil filter mounting studs and tried the "jam nuts" method of removal (two nuts tightened against each other) without success, but I was successful in twisting half the stud off. Now I'm going to have to purchase an angle drill and use a bolt extractor. Sure hope this method works, sure hate to have to remove the engine. Any one provide any encouraging words on this exercise? Secondly, the adapter + spacing isn't a perfect fit. Looks like at least the breather tube has to be removed to remove the oil filter, hopefully the oil cooler hose can be pushed out of the way. Has anyone else noticed this who installed the oil filter adapter? Not sure it's worth the effort. cjay Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=195949#195949 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 08:59:09 PM PST US Subject: RV10-List: Re: Onsite at OSH 2008 - First 2 RV-10's arrive! From: "johngoodman" Tim, Great photos! I'm looking at paint jobs as well, so keep 'em coming. On your web post you made the following comment: "Other than RV-10 photos, I took nothing today, so below are some photos my daughter took. If I could only get her to write web stuff, I could finally retire. :) (Actually, something tells me I'm not going to have a problem getting her to write web stuff. She's keeping an Oshkosh journal, so maybe I'll have her transpose it into HTML for everyone so that your kids can read)" Why just our kids? Maybe she's a better reporter than you...........
