Walking to the Ty after work today noticed a big oil leak. So when I got home I sprayed the underneath and waited to see where it might be comming from. It looks like right where the remote oil filter adapter connects. Is there a gasket or o-ring or something that could be bad up there?

Re: Oil filter adapter leaking???
If you are talking about where the remote oil filter adapter connects to the block, yes there is an O ring and a flat gasket. If you are talking about where the oil filter lives on the inside of the driver's finder, the only gasket there is what comes on the filter. Also, where the lines connect, there are gaskets on the lines (some sort of simese O ring thing).
Hope that helps.

Just about every 4wd GM truck I've seen with the remote oil filter, that adapter leaks at some point. Parts are cheap for it luckily, unlike everything else that needs fixing on these trucks.
