Sump Oil Strainer unit

(1/4) > >>

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I can see loads of muck on the insides of the oil strainer unit - if I attempt to remove the plastic type ring around the guaze will it all break or are they made to be dismantled ?

I don't think they can be dismantled.  Just wash it through from the outside of the mesh , then let it dry before using.

Nurse Julie:
They do come apart and the strainer and the body are separate part numbers. But, you most often wreck the strainer when trying to get them apart.

I do not like the look of the muck on the inside funnel shaped part of the striiner might check availablity befor I wreck it?

DS show it as discontinued - might try a bottle brush from the inside with some petrol.

taysidedragon:
I've got a spare one if you do wreck it. Spray some degreaser or paraffin down it to loosen things up, then
wash it through.
