Review on πŸ”Œ GlowShift Oil Filter Sandwich Plate Thread Adapter - 22mm x 1.5 Thread - Install up to Four 1/8-27 NPT Oil Pressure and Temperature Sensors - Includes O-Ring and Port Plugs by Benjamin Robinson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Really damn good

As simple as it is, it's hard to find anything better. Cheap ones at Revain are junk and will leak or tear during installation. They are very well made and fit my 5.4 3v like gloves. I cleaned the oil filter nipple threads very well with brake cleaner, let dry, applied Loctite for surface prep and primer, Loctite 243, lubricated the o-ring with an oil can and hand tightened about 1/2 turn. I let the Loctite dry before reinstalling the filter and starting the engine. It hasn't leaked or wobbled. When installing, be careful to hold the plate so that it does not rotate when tightening the nut. If it turns, it can break the ring or knock it out of the groove. Glowshift doesn't list any torque specs for it, and when they called their tech support they said it didn't. "Easy to install like an oil filter". Half a turn by hand seemed enough to me considering it's aluminum and the mounting nut/nose is hollow.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Tradable
