RE: [T3] Oil filter question


I use 10W40 in the Square with an older engine and 10W30 in the Notch with a
yonguer one.   Yea, keep the RPM down till the engine is warm, also check
the oil pressure relief and control valve in the case, and make sure nobody
has installed one of those oil pressure raising kits.

Hi All - Toby, Kieth, Jim, Constantino ...

Thanks for the comments. I checked the oil lines and there were not  
on backwards. Yes, we used an HP1 filter.  I'll have to look at the  
Gene Berg fitting. Mine is a Scat and there is no pressure relief  
valve. I too was thinking about a smaller pump. What oil weight do  
you recommend for your T3? We're in the Pacific Northwest where it  
does not get that cold in the winter nor that hot in the summer.  
Currently, I have put 10W/30 in Matt's car. And I'll pass along the  
comment about revving a cold engine ...

Dave
