19 LUBRICATION SYSTEM
Filter canister
To renew19A-01
The filter can have one or two canisters fitted.
When two canisters are fitted, both must be
renewed at the same time. On some engines an oil
cooler (B) is fitted between the filter head and the
filter canister. This arrangement is fitted on the left
side or the right side of the engine.
On some four and six cylinder engines the adaptor
(A1) or (B1) is sealed into the filter head. A new
filter head is supplied without the adaptor fitted; if
either the adaptor or the filter head is to be
renewed, both parts will be necessary.
1 Put a tray under the filter to contain spilt
lubricating oil.
2 Remove the filter canister with a strap wrench or
a similar tool and then discard the canister.
Note: If the adaptor is to be renewed the thread
sealant which is applied to one end during
manufacture must be inserted into the filter head.
3 Clean the seal face of the filter head, or the
bottom face of the oil cooler.
Caution: Ensure that the adaptor (A1) or (B1) is
secure in the filter head.
4 Add clean engine lubricating oil to the new
canister. Give the oil time to fill the canister through
the filter element.
5 Lubricate the top of the canister seal with clean
engine lubricating oil.
6 Install the new canister and tighten it by hand
only. Do not use a strap wrench.
7 After the lubricating oil has been added to the
sump, operate the engine and check for leakage
from the filter. When the engine has cooled, check
the oil level on the dipstick and add oil to the sump,
as necessary.
Caution: The canister contains a valve and special
tube which ensure that lubricating oil does not drain
from the filter. Therefore, ensure that the correct
Perkins POWERPART canister is used.
