hodge Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Where the hell do I put the filter. I was going to put it somewhere in the engine bay but cant find anywhere to put it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Mines been relocated to under the air filter location. Due to the fiting of an FMIC I have modified the underside cowling to allow me to take the cover off for that side in a couple of minutes to change the filter.

terribleturner Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 One of the best places i have seen it installed is under the headlight. Just 1 bolt and 3 nuts and the headlight is out and you can mount it so you can get a proper hold on it to remove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henk Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I don't understand why the oil filter would need relocating. I was at TurboFit 3 weeks ago and saw Ian remove an oil filter in under 30 seconds. Sure it's not fitted right in your face but it did not take long! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ark Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 People like to move them because without ramps or certain tools it can be a bitch to get them off, especially when tight. And it's also a pig to get the old filter out of the bay when it's full of oil, without leaving a liberal coating of black goo everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
