Oil filters

[amweath]

I am changing one of the hydraulic hoses on my PT36. While I have it up
I want to change the engine oil and filters. I can see a spin-on
filter on the engine and transmission. I see what looks like
a cartrige filter to the left of the engine It has two hoses connected
to it. I can't see which system it filters. Can anyone help?

Art, If it has two hoses it is either hydraulic or fuel filter. What engine do you have, 6V92 or 8V92? I havea 8V71 in a Eagle Model 10 and it has two fuel filters, primary and secondary, not sure about yours. Hope I've helped. BTW how do you like your PT36? I may want to get one of those in a few yrs. Regards, George Burke 1977 FC31 Charlotte

-I have a 6v92. I am very happy with my PT36 although have had nothing
else to compare it to. Even though I like the 38 and 40 footers, in
the 36 I can get in to almost any park.

The filter is not for fuel. They are located elsewhere. Could be
hydraulic though.

Art, if it is a cartridge filter on the road side it is probably the in line Parker filter for the hydraulic fan and power steering system. There are three more in the reservoir which holds the 10w30 oil. That is how mine is set up.

Art, Napa has diff schedules of pricesper customers expected $volumn . you canhammer them for a better deal. Agood player for bigtruck parts that wins much of our business now isDrakeParts. There is one in Fontana and Perris.

One of the more commonissues that happen when changing old filters is with the seating surface. Old orings and seals hangup and need to bescraped off. I'v pulled filters that had twoorings in the seat???? I wash seating surface with diesel fuel or wd40 or simple greento keep grit out of the new seat. Prior to mounting I put a finger full of grease (backoff Robertson) on the rubber oring or seal to keep it from ripping when tightened. someone told me it is best not to get grease on the threads??

If you need to remove hoses and want to reuse them, re mount the orientation identical. Best to marka reference line. over time the hose plys get set and lose the ability to relax in a new position. a common result is torn ply's and blockage in thehose interior. Damage not outwardly noticeable.

Hard to reach filters are hard to remount . One of the fears is cross threading the hardware. Prior to removal check the trajectory of the filter. quite often the filter is not a perfect perpendicular or parallelof a frame, engine or other assumed reference. sometime both axis are off by a degree or 10.

Hi Art,
It is the filter for the hydraulic can that powers the power steering
the the fan. When the indicator starts going to the red side, I know
either the 3 filters in the can need replacing or that filter is
plugged up. I change mine with every oil change.

That's the same setup I have. DO NOT FORGET THE ORING. I think bluebird used all wix/parker filters. The black one is a parker that you can get it at ORiely's. I thought I worte the # down last year when I changed mine.

Oil filters Yes the spin-on filter has a high pressure O-ring that must be replaced. This O-ring gets squashed and flattened and cannot be re-used. It is often forgotten. 2008/12/31 Hugh Turner <"ford10076@yahoo.com"> That's the same setup I have. DO NOT FORGET THE ORING. I think bluebird used all wix/parker filters.
