Subject: [TR] Spin-on Filter/Adapter

Greetings, all!

I have a spin-on filter adapter on my '74 TR6. I find that when the filter =
is vertical, it makes using the bleed screw on the clutch slave difficult t=
o maneuver.

If I loosen the adapter plate and rotate the assembly clockwise  a bit to r=
otate the filter away from the clutch slave bleed screw, how far from verti=
cal can the filter be without any issues, anyone know?

Thanks, folks!

Dave

Dave,

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

You can move it quite a lot.  The recommeded filters have anti-drain back p=
rovisions so the oil will not drain out of the filter.  But that really is =
not an issue.  You can move it sufficiently off vertical to get as much cle=
arance as required.  I have.  Next club meeting or TR gathering you go to j=

I have a spin-on filter adapter on my &#39;74 TR6. I find that when the fil=
ter is vertical, it makes using the bleed screw on the clutch slave difficu=
lt to maneuver.</div>

If I loosen the adapter plate and rotate the assembly clockwise=C2=A0 a bit=
 to rotate the filter away from the clutch slave bleed screw, how far from=
=C2=A0vertical can the filter be without any issues, anyone know?<br>
