Help Please. I can't find a replacement o-ring for the oil filter adapter housing. We have looked and called and so has our mechanic. Basically the car leaks oil at a rate that has make it undrivable... so without this o-ring, our wonderful car is just a huge driveway ornament. Any ideas? this is my first time using a forum and my first, so far unsolvable problem. thanks is you have a source for this unusual shaped o-ring
and can share it.
Hello I don’t know if you’re still there or still trying to fix your problem.
Anyhow I don’t know what exact part you need but here is a diagram. If you know a mechanic that can look at this or someone else that can and understand what part you need then you can go from there. This is also a website to help you look at the part numbers along with the diagram.
I think for example the gasket rings labeled 5 are a discontinued part sold by itself but however I think there are some engine gasket sets kits available that might have them included but they run from like $40 to over $120
Like this one APEX AFS3061
It looks like it might have some of the smaller O- Rings or gaskets you might need included if you look inside that other bigger orange like rectangular gasket. The only problem is it seems most of these kits don’t actually label what is in them for some silly reason.
Anyway maybe you can look at engine gasket kits online specific for your car and find a set with the included gaskets you needed and confirm it with a mechanic or something.
But yeah you might have to buy a whole expensive kit for just a few of them but this is what I’ve come up with to try to help other than just giving up on the whole car because of the leak maybe.
Hopefully you figured something out already and everything works out for you.
