Not all Oil filters were created equal!

well to be honest i discovered some additive,its fecking brill stuff,its made by a firm called lucas,and remarkably its called oil additive.

Matey, you deserve a good slap just for using additives, ne'er mind owt else. Heathen. What additive have you used? If you say teflon based, change that to bitch slap.

,damn you like hanging things out dont cha.

I may be somewhat 'casual' in my timeline on occasion.

Does that mean there'll a better chance of getting a remote filter adaptor plate for the 1st gen then? The standard 2nd gen size was never covered. What thread size is the 1st gen?

i an't got a clue but it is the same as the 87 hilux and earlier

as stated befor it is a mahle OC67

I was interested enough to read this thread all the way through, and would like to point out an alternative that 'Ratty' in Australia has been working on for some time. Have a good look at this thread, all the way, and maybe you guys (if interested) could get the filter kit sent over there reasonably cheaply. The manufacturer has been very supportive of the issues:

Aye, I've been keeping track of that thread, (as you can probably tell).

I have an old LR filter unit here to adapt to test the bypass filter setup. Snatch made some adaptors so that I can pull the feed from the oil cooler assembly, rather than using the oil sender port, as with that kit. The return from the alternator to the sump is likely going to be the tap in point for the return, rather than that method with the filler cap.

I just need to get off my arse and sort it. Must admit though, I'm half tempted to try getting hold of one of those JM kits for testing. Seems to be far sturdier in construction than the likes of the Franz and such.
