| Post subject: | Oil change problem? |
Hi all. I am after some reassurance. Today I changed the oil/filter on my 1986 2cv. The filter took some effort, with a strap, but finally spun off. I then noticed that the threaded tube onto which the filter spins was protruding 2-3cm further out than it should and was in the process of unwinding away from the crankcase. I wound the tube back into the housing until it was tight. Filled with new oil I started the engine and the oil light went out as it should. Now, because I don't know what's inside the casing behind this tube, I'm hoping that this occurrence will not have caused anything untoward. Thanks for your thoughts. |

Its just a threaded tube. Screw it back in again it will be ok. |
