Oil Filter gaskets

[fossie]

This is something we discussed at wussey kat.

When you get a hi flo oil filter for the aircooled Kats (HF133)You get 2 o rings .
1x 3 bolts = 550, 650 , 750 se & 250 both water and air cooled not really kat ez )models
also 1x 5 bolt = 750 s1 /s2 1000 ,1100.


Now when you get other filters both aftermarket and genuine you don't get any o rings and need to buy seperate.

I have about 50 5 bolt o rings spare because I mainly use 3 bolt ones , but have a few filters without orings , want to swap?
Or does anyone need some?

Fossie,
I might need some, as for some years now we don't have any 5 bolt o-rings with our filters any more, only 3 bolt. My o-rings are pretty worn in the mean time after re-using it ever so often.

I used a pattern oil filter o ring once and it leaked, since then i always use a genuine suzuki one.

[fossie]

been using hi flo for 20 years or so do about 20 oil changes a year , only ever had 2 leak and they were down to the nuts stripping a bit of thread off.

pedda I'll get you some in the post in the next few days mate.
