Re: 3.2 V6 - removing the oil filter heat exchanger
Posted: Fri Sep 01, 2017 7:15 am
This is the exact same fitting for the oil filter on a gtv6 12v block
Today I have been to a hydraulic engineers shop and have and have been informed that the fitting thread size which goes into the block is 1/2" bsp
Which has a very slight taper
Couldn't find the thread size for the oil filter but that should be easy enough to find
When I find the thread size for the oil filter itself I shall buy two nuts to fit and then try and remove from a 2.5 12vlave gtv6 engine I have then hopefully will be able to remove it
if not ill order a new one from alfa if they are still available
