Oil filter

Forums

I bought one at Netley yesterday and am now looking for the best place to mount it, has anyone else fitted one, I'm thinking of behind the central frame section but need to work out how to route the pipes.

Hi Dan

Since you are a bit short on replys I thought I would passon my experience.

To date I have restored three lightweights.Two standard models (Jubilee & Navigator )and one Navigator Deluxe and fitted oil filters to all of them.I used a kit from Norvil and a specialbracket from the club spares.

The bracket fits at the base of the centre channel using the two 1/4 inchbolts of the centre stand stop.The filter is mounted horizontallyon the bracket facing the rear wheel. Clearance is a bit tight.On the deluxe model which I have just finished, I mounted the filter just above the engine in the centre channel using my own bracket.

As far as the pipe run is concerned the filter is fitted in the return feed between between the bottom engine union and the oil tank return.

Regards

Stan

Thanks Stan

I've had a day in the shed today and decided to fit mine under the swing arm, but may drill a couple of holes in the centre member, and fit it vertically, it looks like a good fit there. I'll finally decide when I've finished fitting the rear mudguard (aluminium) and centre stand. I'll have a look at the club bracket.
