Hi Guys,

I'm about to install an oil filter base assembly on my i0-320 and the Lycoming manual picture shows one oil filter adaptor gasket (LW-12795) but the quantity per assembly has 2 needed. My gasket kit has two of them. Do I really need to pancake two gaskets or just use one?

My parts manual only shows one gasket, but some other Lycoming engines have an adapter plate/spacer and do take two gaskets.

Is your gasket kit a universal one for more than one engine?

SSP-885-2 gives conversion details for adding a spin-on oil filter, and only mentions two of the gaskets for an O-235 engine.

Only and old version of SSP-885 is on-line - http://www.7ts0.com/manuals/lycoming/EMOFK.pdf

The latest version has more details but the parts table appears to be identical.

Hi Gil,

I've been looking at the link below which shows what I'm wondering about. Yup, I got a universal kit with numerous gaskets that will be left over.

I have a PDF copy of the newest [revision 2, circa 2003 versus old revision 1, circa 1988] version of SSP-885-2 if anyone wants it. Just contact me via email or PM. I can not find this document online.
