Hello all,<br>
<br>
15005 1957 TR3<br>
<br>
The screw that inserts into the door socket that holds the widescreen is br=
oken. I?m sending a gyazo of the good one so you will know exactly what scr=
ew I <br>
mean: <a href=3D"https://gyazo.com/e1b5e321e1a31489b0d0735651d8b783"; rel=3D=
"noreferrer" target=3D"_blank">https://gyazo.com/e1b5e321e1a31489b0d0735651=
d8b783</a><br>
<br>
Does anyone know of a place where I might get this, or an equivalent? If I =
can get the lower thread out it might be possible to weld it, but the retai=
ning pin holding it in place is in no hurry to pop out, plus it seems ruste=
d in. <br>
<br>
Grateful for any tips or info. <br>
Thanks <br>
Dave<br>

Dave,<br>
<br>
Most of the setups like this I&#39;ve seen (including mine) have the filter=
 <br>
turned slightly clockwise from vertical. This is not a gravity-fed <br>
filter system, so orientation of the filter shouldn&#39;t matter. (But I <b=
r>
also admit that I could be dangerously wrong.) Most of my modern cars <br>
have the spin-on filter horizontal. And the Subaru Outback w/ turbo <br>
engine has it upside down! (see attached).<br>

I had a similar problem on my injected engine with the Lucas system. I trie=
d a variety of different size filters and my problem was the fuel metering =
unit being in the way as it was driven off the distributor shaft. In the en=
d I used a fairly stubby filter positioned at about 9 o?clock and everythin=
g was fine. As long as you ensure you use a filter with an anti drain valve=
, it?ll stay full when the engine isn?t running and none of the ?death ratt=
le? on a cold start. At least it worked for me without issues but I?m sure =
you?ll get plenty of ?variable? advice :)<br>
