Review on Durable Oil Screen Kit for Deep Sumps & 1500-1600 VW - Compatible with Dune Buggy by Nick Andep

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Suitable for use in VW Air Cooled Engines

Like: These worn out oil filters for older VW cars are becoming harder and harder to find these days (compared to the 1980's and 1990's) and it was all about that was required. to efficiently complete the oil change. Dislikes 1: The shim kits that came with them were regular metal shims, while the original kits that used to include 1x only used copper "crush" shims, which actually didn't do any good after that one use. Maybe it's a cost-cutting measure, maybe it's just a new way of doing things. Dislikes 2: The holes punched in the filter require a minor modification to install it properly - the holes were drilled offset. I've made several attempts to install from different positions, but some or all of them were easily drilled/punched, far enough to require a small file for installation. previous style. But note that the whole stylish VW engine seems to drip oil, no matter how well built.
