Hi folks -
Did an oil and filter change on my OC-3 yesterday. Replaced the filter with a 57011, recommended as a sub for the previous 51101, refilled, started - oil pressure ok (+/- 20), backed it into the shed and oil everywhere.
The filter had popped off and pumped half the oil out.
The mounting bracket seems undamaged.
Has anyone else had a problem like that?
Found the problem.
The gasket on the old filter remained in place on the filter bracket; the two thick gaskets prevented the threads on the new filter from engaging sufficiently.
Glad you found the reason and happy it didn't do any damage.
