The 2nd Oil filter
« on: June 22, 2015, 02:03:39 PM »
So assuming the original owner could not drive the car enough, what would be the 2nd replacement oil filter after the painted blue was replaced for a Sept 65 SJ build?

What would be the most accurate replacement gold, Red, or white in the attached or maybe none?



Thanks,
Jeff

For this exercise in "what if's"  if the oil filter were replaced in Sept 1965 it would most likely be the gold filter, unless they(where ever this oil change was taking place) hadn't used up all of the red filters .
