Re: Oil Filter Lines

I do have the bypass (pigtail) oil line hookup on my 356 but I still had the same problem with the filter canister leaking profusely around the retaining bolt. I used an old rubber O-ring I found in my spare parts drawer to stop the leak. I will probably try replacing this with a new copper washer (as described by O_D) the next time I change the filter. I thought that both gaskets were included with the new filters, but the filter I bought from NAPA only came with the large gasket for the rim.
