Well, I received my F & M oil filter adapter for my O-200 today not bad for
quality of workmanship the Casting could have been cleaned up a bit &
Machining could have been done a bit more precise for the money you spend on
the unit but I don't think its going to make a diffreance as its under the
cowling anyway and out of sight. I am droping of off to the mechanic to have
it installed tomarrow. Cannot wait oil changes on my 150 with out a big
mess.

I tried to figure out if you were seeking more information about the filter
installation or you have assumed that oil changes would be less messy.

If you want to know more, ask a question such as how best to remove the filter
to reduce the amount of oil spilled, and ask whether you should allow the mech
to take off (desolder) the screen and whether you should remove the screen each
oil change even when you have the filter.

And don't forget to get some silicone grease to lube the gasket. And, you
have the torque wrench to secure the replacement filters?

If he thinks the filter will come off without making a mess he is going to
be hopping mad first time he tries it.
