needed 1 threaded boss to convert my engine from paper filter to spin on filter

£14 from my local stealer, "part not in stock and never sold one"

Thanks

just keep what you've got. I can't see the point in changing for the sake of it.  :-/ :-/

mine had it in stock and about £6 what are they on!

If you dont have any luck, lemme know and Ill try and get one before Newent

I've bought one recently, got the part number from the guide on here. Wasn't in stock but came in within a couple of days.

It was more than £6 though.

The reason to change is that the screw on filters are a fraction of the price of the element ones and much moe robust

However, I believe there's less filter element

I know what's posted here re spin on vs element type, but I've had my car for about 7 years & 70 000miles, done loads of oil changes & never had a problem with mine.
As for price .... I can't argue that the element is twice the price of a spin on but .....we're talking £3-odd

The casting is already broken, due to someone using 15,000 Nm's instead of 15 Nm.
