Colin Lindsay Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 I knew they looked very long, but had no idea of the thread. I'll end up plaguing the local autofactors next week, with a sample filter for size and a thread gauge for thread.There's a Polish guy works in my local and he'll move Heaven and Earth to find what you want.

SpitFire6 Posted March 10, 2019 Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 Hi, From memory, the oil flow at 2000 RPM is around 3 GPM. Could a small volume filter, ie, 50mm long handle 20W oil without the bypass valve opening? I guess picking one with no bypass might be a good choice especially when mounted vertically with the inlet at the top? I can see the point of not mounting the filter upside-down as in my install. My HOF200 is mounted vertically with the bottom at the top. I cannot move it from this angle as I have a tap-off point feeding the front bearings. I have no pressure gauge fitted & I have no noise on start-up. I do have an unknown noise sometimes, I assume its something to do with the starter motor pinion? Would be interesting if somebody could measure the DP across the filter at start-up. I believe there are pick-up points to facilitate this. Could be a way to judge if the filter needs changing before an oil change? No idea of numbers. Additionally, from what I am told; FRAM oil filters are crap. Cheers, Iain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it will fit, but not convinced it is wise. I have heard people using Renault 5 filters with M20 threads on unf equipped cars and the filter blowing off. M20 is a commonly used thread on Japanese cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
