Oil Filter Adapter Stud Replacement

Removal
1. Remove the existing stud.
2. Inspect the housing adapter threads for damage.
3. If any threads are damaged, install a new adapter
housing.
Replacement
1. Thoroughly clean adapter housing threads.
2. Install a new stud P/N 653490
3. Insure that the incomplete thread on the stud
stops at the first thread in the adapter housing
and does not continue into the housing below the
minimum 0.500" extension. Refer to Figure 15-
6, "Oil Filter Adapter stud Inspection." Replace
the adapter housing if the extension is less than
the specified 0.500" minimum.

stud from the adapter. Clean the adapter housing
threads and stud with Loctite "Primer T" (TCM
P/N 646944). Allow the primer to dry.
