200 ENGINE ASSEMBLY [215 DW & 219 EP] OIL COOLER AND OIL FILTER HEAD Assembling a New Oil Filter Adapter The oil filter head does not come as a complete assembly, so the fittings, nipples, spuds, etc., must be installed before installing the filter head onto the engine. Perform the following procedures before installing the threaded spuds into the filter head. Refer to Figure 6-93. 1. Apply a continuous bead of Loctite 609 around the circumference of the spud, between the second and fifth threads from the upper end. 2. Screw the spuds into the filter adapter until they protrude 0.703 inch (17.856 mm) when measured from the bottom of the spud to the sealing surface of the oil filter head assembly. To ensure that spuds are secure in the adapter housing, they may be “staked” by using a small punch to make a small indentation between the threads of the spud and the adapter. 3. Apply a continuous bead of Loctite 609 around the circumference of the fitting between the second and fifth threads of the upper end of the Centri-Max™ fitting. Install the fitting and torque to 135–165 lb-ft (183–224 N폷m) using torque wrench J 24407 or equivalent. Do not stake the Centri-Max™ fitting.

The oil cooler and oil filter head assembly can be installed separately, but assembling them together on a bench is easier and reduces the possibility of damaging O-ring seals.
