Ok i just hooked up my sandwich plate and oil feed line on my d-series. I put it on with the grooved side facing the block with the the gasket it came with and the flush side facing the filter. Now when i tried to prime my turbo, oil started coming out from between the block and plate. I took the filter and plate off and noticed the inside of the filter was bone dry. I tightened the plate some more and put the flter back on and tried it again, sure enough oil is still coming out. Do i have this thing on backwards or somthing? Hit me up with any ideas.

 

Are you sure that it is leaking from between the block and the plate? The reason I ask is because I have seen several times on others, plus I myself have had to deal with the fact that some sandwich plates are slightly bigger than they should be and the standard Honda oil filter o-ring is not big enough.
To fix this I have had to use the bigger S2000 oil filter or the even bigger K&N oil filter.
If it is leaking from the block side, then maybe your o-ring needs to be replaced...there is a scratch/crack on the mating surface...or you have the wrong sandwich.

Good luck

 

I checked that and the O-ring on the filter is making good contact with the plate.

 

Well i pulled the plate off and saw a crease in the plate/block o-ring so it was probobly off set. But it got too dark for me to try and see if it is holding oil. Ill see 2morow.

 

Good luck man, Im glad to see the turbo project is coming along rather quickly.

 

Thanx bro.

 

It worked!!!!!!!!! Now all i need is the feed fitting and i am good 2 go!!!!!
