Greetings,
Fairly new to the forums and owner of a 1972 teener. I bought the car last spring with a slightly hot rodded 2.0 and a side shift conversion. The true upside is ZERO rust, I have a lift and have inspected every inch of the car. The issue I have is that the oil filter flange is leaking badly (1qt/20 miles). Upon inspection it appears that the upper nut can not be removed without removing the oil cooler. I have new oil cooler seals and the oil filter flange gasket coming from Auto Atlanta. Question is, has anyone ever removed the filter flange in the car? I really would rather not perform an engine drop this week, but I will if needed. Just a little background, until 5 yrs ago I was an Audi dealer shop foreman for 25 years. As a result the nuts and bolts don't bother me at all. It is more current time constraints and the want to drive the car. Thanks, Daniel |

Thanks for the input guys, money is a little tight right now until I start a new job in (fingers crossed) 2-3 weeks. So buying the HF table is not in the cards, although I might be able to talk my father into it as I need to do an engine drop on his 86 911 for a clutch and fuel lines.
What Guzzi? I had an 850 Le Mans back in the day, loved it. Rolled through the twisties nicely and just kind of lumped along. Daniel |
