I cut s spanner in half this time and fairly easily got it in and out at night with plenty of shadows..... Cleaned the filter up at work in the ultrasonic cleaner, gave it a good flush with contact cleaner, soaked it in X-55 then blew it out with compressed air.

Full Monty Member 513 Member For: 17y 5m 4d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 16/04/08 11:07 PM Share Posted 16/04/08 11:07 PM The guys at Nizpro have never seen a Turbo failure caused by this in their workshop. Dave seemed to think it was purely down to the quality of oil and service intervals.I will be changing mine to a new one at my service next week.

I don't think that they put it in there just for the sake of it. Leave well enough alone I reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive done worse jobs, but its just the lack of access. It was made worse for me as I have a T piece fitted for my oil pressure sender and electric oil pressure gauge.Hi,If anyone in western Sydney could do this for me, I would pay you.... PM me if your interested. State your price too.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Monty Member 513 Member For: 17y 5m 4d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 22/04/08 06:31 AM Share Posted 22/04/08 06:31 AM Ok Purchased a new oil feed filter assembly yesterday from ford, cost me $51 trade.the thing is, that there is no record of there being a revision of this part in the ford system. So as far as they were concerned this part has never been revised and remains the same as the original BA part no.worthwhile changing this every 30,000 km at this price, perhaps just a cleaning in between.

benjam Member 137 Member For: 19y 7m 24d Location: Sydney NSW Posted 22/04/08 09:29 AM Share Posted 22/04/08 09:29 AM I changed mine last weekend and the new adapter fitting and washers were slightly different from my old one. I ordered the part #s previously mentioned here.The difference was that my old washers have a black hard inner material reducing the inner diameter of them and fit my old adapter ok. But my old washers did not fit the new adapter. The new adapter has an extra thick diameter nearest to the hex part, just for the new washers. So lucky I ordered the new washers which are like the ones at the start of this topic. Here's a pic of my old adapter and washers from my Dec 02 BA. Cheers.Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civillian Donating Members 78 Member For: 20y 2m 10d Gender: Male Location: Canberra Posted 03/10/08 04:38 AM Share Posted 03/10/08 04:38 AM I've got one of ETM's oil filter kits, which I'll be putting on my newly refurbished turbo soon. So it will be a new oil line in a new(ish) turbocharger, so there will be oil starvation for a short time...I've heard somewhere that you should prime the oil lines before running the engine, by disconnecting the coil and turning the engine over. However, XR6T's have individual coils which are hard(er) to disconnect.Should I be priming the lines first, and if so, how?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
