i believe my girlfriends oil filter o-ring is leaking. before i go in i was just wondering about a few things. will i have to disconnect the coolant lines running to the adapter piece? or anything that makes this job harder than removing the oil filter, and removing the bolt that holds the assembly together to get to the o-ring? also there seems to be a bolt right under the oil filter that might be a drain of some sort? there might be a leak coming from it also? how can i get that to stop leaking? looks like some sort of teflon tape (not that it is teflon tape, just looks like it) helps the bolt from leaking? does anyone know what im talking about? if not i can try to explain better. also sorry, its just late and i need sleep. thats why this seems so jumbled and random this is a 92 accord with the f22. thanks.

 

 

Remove the oil filter and remove that thing bolt that you are talking about. There is a gasket behind that adapter. You don't have to remove the cooler lines to do this job. I would use a little bit of hondabond to get that gasket to stick to the oil filter adapter, otherwise is won't sit in there right and will leak.

 

hondabond is just like any other gasket sealer right? thanks for the info.
