Sandham Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Hi, will be fitting a new oil filter housing to my gt turbo today due to previous owner threading the old one. Ive got a new gasket from idworkz but was just wondering how easy it is to fit and how to remove my old one.I have mechanical knowledge but like to know what im doing before i start a jobThanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jhandy Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) not hard bud, think its like 3 or 4 bolts and thats it, but make sure all the old gasket is completely removed, otherwise the new one will leak, hope this helps Edited June 21, 2013 by Jhandy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Yeah as Jhandy said. Good clean up of the sealing surfaces. Scrape off the old gasket and give it a light sand if needed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jhandy Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 then you should be able to it directly from under the car bud, you will see the oil filter, and its behind that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
