Oil Canister Gasket

Posted by Pack120c On 2013/6/15 16:39:59

Hello All,

Does anyone know where I can find the rubber gasket for a purolator oil canister? Mine is the larger canister on my 327 inline eight. Approximately 7 inches tall with an inside diameter of 4.5 inches. It takes the Napa Gold 1100 filter.

The gasket that comes with the new filter is much too large.
The old gaskte is torn and will not seal. I a made a gasket from the "rubberized" paper stuff from Pep Boys but that was a failure.

I looked online at Restoration Specialties and came up empty. Max Merritt sells the small filter and gasket.

Any help would be appreciated. It's amazing how a simple oil change can frustrate the heck out of you.
