LN Engineering's exclusive full-flow spin-on oil filter adapter allows for use of a conventional spin-on oil filter, rather than expensive and messy cartridge-style filters, and improves oil filtration by eliminating the problematic factory filter bypass that can allow contaminants back into your engine.

Makes oil changes easy again!

The LN Engineering Spin-On Oil Filter Adapter helps improve the longevity of your engine by providing full flow filtration by deleting the bypass, which means 100% of the oil gets filtered and whatever goes to the filter stays in the filter. This limits collateral damage from foreign object debris that would otherwise re-contaminate the engine when using the factory filter arrangement from wear particles or debris.

Since a steel-bodied spin-on conventional oil filter is now employed, you can further reduce engine wear by using a Filtermag, which reduces iron contaminants in your motor oil and thus reduces wear associated with these particles normally unfiltered by the oil filter.

When installing, be sure to lubricate both o-rings with clean engine oil. Screw the oil filter adapter onto the engine by hand. Once the spin on filter adapter is fully engaged to the block, use a 26mm socket and torque to 25 Nm (18 Ft/Lbs). Also be sure to oil the filter gasket.

Filter should be installed by hand then once snug, turned another 3/4 to 1 turn to finish filter installation or to the filter manufacturers recommended specifications.

Oil change interval should not exceed 6 months or 5,000 miles for street using a 0w40 or 5w50 viscosity motor oil; higher viscosity is not recommended. The filter used in conjunction with the spin on oil filter adapter (Wix 51042) is an excellent choice for this application with adequate size and very high burst strength.
