Zetec Oil Filter Sandwich Plate
Plunky - 29/4/17 at 06:40 PM

Evening guys,
I'm looking to fit an oil filter sandwich plate to the blacktop zetec engine in my F27.
Reasons for doing so is to a. have somewhere to plumb in an oil temp sensor and b. eventually fit an oil cooler.
Can anyone advise on a decent sandwich plate? I've had a quick look on ebay but wondered if anyone had any previous experience/advice.
Cheers,
Liam

Zetec don't like oil coolers, cooling the oI'll to much brings on big end problems...

I fitted a remote on mine purely to avoid the steering shafts and keep the oem big filter.

Mocal do a take off plate but I went for a sandwich plate and cover so the ports came out the side instead of on top.
