<div><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">Now I'm confused. Are we discussing the adapter for the angled oil filter or adapter for the oil pressure line? Is there actually an adapter for the pressure line? Been a while and can't remember.

<div><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">Terry, pretty sure that oil fitting that goes into the block is 1/4" good old American standard pipe thread. Hope you don't have a problem because I think the fitting should have come out fairly easily. Mark L<br clear="none"><br clear="none"></span></div>
