SCREW SECURED ENGINE OIL FILLER CAP

DESCRIPTION

As an added safety feature, the standard engine oil filler cap has been replaced by a screw
secured oil filler cap.

INSTALLATION

There are two different types of screw secured engine oil filler cap assembly.

The filler cap body of type ‘A’ is secured to the engine oil filler inlet using ‘Loctite’. Remove the
existing filler cap but retain the drain. Ensure that the non-threaded section of the filler cap body
is secured into the engine oil filler to a depth of between 35mm and 40mm with the threaded
section protruding upwards.
