gdgd lol if you look at the mk1 filter it needs the space inside so i would cut it off m8

well i just used a normal bolt and it was miles away... only fitted it on saturday... infact we fitted 2 as my mate got the same manifold

ive got a question for you. cause i don`t have a clue about this one. where you put the oil sensor thing on the engine block i won`t be able to do that cause im doing a turbo conversion. and where you put the oil sensor am gonna be putting the oil feed there. so what do i do about the sensor. can i just tie it up out the way?

FinchysSaxo · 9th October 2007, 00:29

hmm well mine is only pocking out a lil bit as i melted it off. the wire is new wire that we soldered upto the sensor wire ends inside the plastic of the sensor, and wrapped this in foil to protect it and its fine, its v close to the engine block now so should be ok if your having a turbo. do u mean thathole you want to have the oil feed going into it??

steviet · 9th October 2007, 00:36

yeah mate that is the hole for the oil feed that i will be using so there won`t be a place for the oil sensor thing. so wondering where i could put it. or do i even need it

FinchysSaxo · 9th October 2007, 00:41

i think u need it, i was thinkin you could make a pipe that screws in the hole thats got a hole in it on the side which you could screw the sensor into, but on the end of the pipe have oil feed? what you think?

Baz · 9th October 2007, 00:42

i hope this isn't as difficult as im making it seem lol mi hoping to fit one on monday lol. Is there anyway of making 100% sure i need a MK1 oil filter, if i went and took a pic of mine now would someone be able to tell?

steviet · 9th October 2007, 00:43

you mean like an adapter for the 2 to go into then into the hole?

FinchysSaxo · 9th October 2007, 00:44

Baz · 9th October 2007, 00:45

FinchysSaxo · 9th October 2007, 00:47

i think it could be possible to make aswell. fanku need any more ideas im your man haha lol

steviet · 9th October 2007, 00:48

cheers bud ill let you know how it goes. cheers again

Baz · 9th October 2007, 00:54

i can't see shit out there, and i can't think of where the hell the filter is lmao

FinchysSaxo · 9th October 2007, 00:57

will be at the front m8 lol like a big canister thing. if its pointing up towards you when you find it, which it should be on a mk2 furio, then you will need the mk1 filter m8 with the adapter etc. but if its pointing towards the front bumper coming straight off the engine block, then its a mk1 filter already and you wont need to move anything i would of fort. hope that helps when its brighter out lol
