Oil Leak Help??????

[heffer]

The oil leak is coming from the remote oil filter adapter off the bottom of the block. I resealed it a couple of weeks ago and now it is leaking again. Does anyone have any tips of tricks to help. It is making a big mess. :rant:

If you go to NAPA they have a complete kit. 2 small o-rings, 1 big o-ring & the gasket. Might even have the other o-rings for the filter mount, I don't recall.
Take one of the bolts out that holds the adapter on & go to your local hardware store & buy 2 replacements, either in Grade 8 or stainless. The stock bolts are aluminum and can snap off.
