Hi mate. In the oil filter housing the one way oil valve just below the black stick filter goes, I have problems with oil leak abit. Is there a seal ring/oring that goes between your silver metal plug bit of one way oil valve? Just thinking I should try some light seal/heat silicone with being metal to metal and oil drops of oil leaking as leaks onto cat and smells when hot
Every new filter comes with an o-ring that is to be placed on the plastic housing as shown in my video. If the o-ring has not been replaced or has been replaced without lubricating it first, leaks may happen.
@@MotorScotti yeah mate I know about that thanks. I mean when you take oil filter cap off and take it all out, if you then look in housing at that black stick which filter goes over, looking just below it is the one way oil valve (no-drain valve). That with the spring . Problem i had was my valve was missing silver sink type plug so I'm not sure if there should be a seal of some sort as once I got a new one way/no- drain/non(oil)return valve, putting it in i have a slight drip after testing over sink after taking cooler out to change gaskets. Currently it's only a metal silver plug which sits in bottom of oil filler/cooler housing and wondered if there should be an oring or seal/gasket being metal non drain plug-to-metal filter housing? Would you try a thin seal between to 2 metals as slight oil drip?
@ryanscottcarnall4448 Okay, yes in that case I would try the sealant. Not sure whether it's gonna hold or if you'll need an o-ring, but you can try first.

@@MotorScotti thanks mate, appreciate your time to reply, top man 🍺. I'll try an oring first
