Is there any torque value for attaching the LN spin on filter attachment? Also, it came with no seal or washer. Just screw it on?

Any other tips?

I think someone said the NAPA Wix filter was recommended. Is there a specific part number/series filter to buy?

Thanks. First DIY oil change on for tomorrow.

Hey
Put mine on last week. The LN website has the torque value for the adapter.
I want to say about 18ft/lbs? The NAPA Gold filter is the recommended one. #51042
TQ is 18 ft/lbs on the adapter. Be sure the base snugs all the way up to the engine block
Before torqueing. I found that the large size of the drain plug overwhelmed my oil drain pans'
Ability to accept. Have a pail or tub handy. 10 qts is a lot of oil

Its been a while, but I want to say I remember a rubber O-ring being on there.

Might want to confirm before installing

There is an o-ring on the threads for the filter but nothing on the threaded part that attaches to the motor.

Thanks!

Correct. There is a ring on the inside of the threaded nipple.

Just checked LNs site. Unless somethings changed, there should definitely be an O-ring on the side that threads into the engine. (see pics)

TSMacNeil

Yep. That large o-ring as shown in the male threads of the adapter
Also a smaller o-ring inside the female oil port on the same end of that adapter.

Large O-ring is there. The small threaded tube has no O-ring.

Need to call Pellican tomorrow.

You sure?
It's about 1/2 inside the oil flange that is surrounded by those 8 or 10 holes on that end of the adapter...not the spin-on filter end.
In the photo on the right, 1/2 way down into the flange

TS--Oh! I got it. I was looking at the smaller part. Got it.

Gtg now. Thanks all. Standby for a report on how I underestimated how much 10 qts. is.
