[Healeys] No Oil in the Spin off filter

I noted no difference in oil pressure when I converted.

The way I look at it is that because spin-on is so much easier to use, you
will change your oil more often....this will greatly enhance the value of
the engine.

Do an oil change using your canister type filter and you will know what I
mean.

Hi Everyone,

I'm a new Healey owner, as as such and as many of you know, have much to
learn. But...when I investigated changing my original filter to spin-on, our
local restorer here in the Midwest told me to keep the original. He
explained that with spin-on filters the oil pressure generated is "not
sufficient" and he therefore doesn't like them.

For what that's worth...let's see what the "doctors" think.
