guys just looking for some re a shorance, decided id do a service on the old rb 26 today so went up to the store grabbed oil and filter and what not sure enough dumped oil, changed filter, and fired her up. NO oil pressure only idle for about 10 15 sec. switched off, thought maybe just cause id drained the oil, the pump hadnt picked up yet, fired her up again 10 15 sec couple of short revs 2grand tops, still no oil pressure. shut her off open the door and sure enough the oil filter had blown off! oil absoulutly every where and i am pissed. turns out the filter that was in the box wasnt the filter written on the box. it did tightn up but obviously not enough threads so has this caused damage?? ended up putting the original back on and firing up oil pressure straight up and sounds fine but what are the chances??
thanks guys.
