Zetec remote oil filter
I have had a good day in the garage today,my good mate Coozer came over and between us we have got the engine in the bay,albeit temporarily due to
having the wrong clutch plate
I also have a small problem concerning the oil filter-it wont fit where it should due to the steering shaft being there.
So my question is this,what have all you mk guys done to get around this?
I have looked on the bay and can buy a remote filter kit for £70 but wont buy until i have covered all my options.
Thanks,
Andy

Small filter for me as well. Halfords HOF266 fits my Blacktop.

Thanks for the replies guys,i should have explained that my engine is a 1.8 silvertop and the filter is in a different position.Its on the ally
housing on the front so is realy close to the shaft.
