Just tryin 2 rip this jigger off one engine and put it onto another for the purpose of having the turbo feed line.
Just wondering
A. is it safe to rip it off without anythin goin out whack? (if its a silly question its coz im new to diesels)
B. How the hell do i get it off, ive undon all the bolts but it seems stuck by some hidden force( obviously the bolts are not out in the pic, this is a different motor....same cover tho).
yep filter is off, all the behind it is the thread for it to screw onto. it has a hex shape base thought it may have been a massive nut or sumthin but doesnt look 2 be, maybe its just and ass to take off?
i just took mine off on the weekend gone, there was a bolt behind where the filter sat on mine, after all the bolts were undone all we had to do was give it a bit of persuasion with a hammer and flat head screwdriver to loosen it off.
Edit: the 4 nuts on the cooler you dont have to undo as they hold the fins on behind the cooler
mmmg ot it off, yeah i figured that when i pulled the cover off in the pic, the other motor was a 2lte and the bolt was in behind the big fark off thread that the oil filter threads onto...all sorted now
