The first bad news is that I replaced my romote oil
filter mount and installed a new filter. As I have mentioned here I have
had it leaking at the rubber filter seal. The old one looked ok, but
since replacing the filters no less than three times and knowing that the
eye cannot see all inperfections, I replaced the mount AND filter
(K&N 2004 filter). But, NO JOY. It is still leaking where the filter
mounts. It IS seeping from the filter seal and NOT the two hose
connections...no doubt on this
I can only think of two
possibilities. Either the oil is coming from somewhere else; or the
filter is not properly tightened. Did you lube the seal surface on the
filter before tightening? Consider other possible sources for the oil.
On the electrical issue – remote diagnosis
seems impossible.
