When you're pulling the oil filter out of the housing you need to take it and let it drain into a drain pan not back into the canister because the old oil the filtered oil the non-fertile oil is dripping right back in your can and back into your engine
Even I feel the same, but then it was the pioneering days of automobile design. The filter directly on the block I am guessing was a Mercedes Benz innovation..??
@@bradh5613 My '47 has a drain hole in the canister as well, but the head of the drain plug is rounded so much that a socket wrench slips off. I think a previous owner may have replaced the plug with one that has the wrong thread. Anyway, it's stuck and I don't want to risk damaging the unit by using gorilla force. Also, the drain hole sits above the generator, so draining it risks getting oil all over the generator. Instead I use an old rag and some paper towels to sop up the oil and to clean out the interior of the canister. I've read that some enterprising owners use a turkey baster for this job. I may have to try that.
bazthehandyman My is going to get a draincock, with a hose on the bottom, to dump the oil where the engine drain plug is. Enough of this foolishness. :)
I have a 1943 Willy Jeep that has not been running for a few years. Today, I installed a new battery. The fan turns and it sounds like it is trying to start. I realize it probably needs oil change/filter change, gas drained. Any tips you can offer? Or suggest videos I could watch? Thank you
Do you still add lead to the gasoline ? My lead container says ½ oz. to every 5 gallons -- sound about right ? Also, 87 octane or premium (91or higher) ? Thanks
@@WW2JeepandRifle -- ok thanks on the gasoline tip 👍🏼 In addition l'm fabbing up a hand-crank starter for my 48cj2a as they're almost impossible to find. Most bumpers have that factory hole in it for placement to the crank nut. Have you ever seen or messed with any hand cranks ? (Which l think are awesome as a fail safe to a dead battery) I think it comes factory sometimes along with an air pump stored under the rear bench seats ? -- thanks much! And also great vids ! OlllllO
Mate, best explanation ever!!! Simple, straight forward, no bxllshit, no advertising, excellent. 😊
Really enjoying the Jeep maintenance videos - please keep them coming - really good resource
You forgot to change the oil in the Oil bath air filter also .
On my 47 Willys CJ2A flathead engine I use non-detergent SAE 30 and add Zinc to it to prevent the lifters and camshaft from wearing down prematurely.
Fun video! yeah I expect it would be easy especially in more time
Love do it yourself oil changes nothing like fresh fluid
Did you drain the oil filter canister before you put in the new filter ?
I also qustioned about that. I used a large syringe to remore the old oil from mine then cleaned the cannister with a shop towels
Did you leave the old oil in the filter cannister There is about a quart of old oil in the canister. ?
What about the dirty oil which remains in the filter canister?
Take it to an auto garage and they will dispose it for a small fee
Interesting video. As Iam thinking about buying on old ww2 jeep here in the UK.
What was the filter model number

Where's the Fing dip stick to check oil level ???
SAE 30 Oil? I use 20W50 in my Willys.
SAE 30 per TM 9-803 lubrication guide. Nowadays, engine oil viscosity is more of a personal preference it seems.
what is the part no.of oil filter of willys a32
The oil you used is 30W. Does it have a Zinc additive in it ?
Did you take the residual oil out of the filter canister?
Yes. I did a good wipe down of the inside of the filter canister before installing the new filter.
What oil viscosity do you recommend? I’m using straight SAE 30. Thanks
Great work!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
i know I am pretty randomly asking but does anybody know of a good place to stream newly released movies online?

@Ahmad Ronald Thank you, I signed up and it seems like a nice service =) I appreciate it !!
@Enoch Josiah You are welcome :D
There is always oil left in bottom of filter canister as arlingtonguy says...bad design cos doesn't drain so you have to empty it out.
Even I feel the same, but then it was the pioneering days of automobile design. The filter directly on the block I am guessing was a Mercedes Benz innovation..??
Mine has a drain hole to drain the canister. But it's a 48, perhaps later models have that?
@@bradh5613...All same.. Won't get the last bit of oil out because that drain is not right at bottom.

What model of Oil Filter do you use ?

Here's a playlist with over 30 videos showing various service and repair demonstrations for these old jeeps. Hope this helps!
Where did you find the oil filter for your jeep?
I got this replacement filter from kaiserwillys.com
No splash plate.
Do you still add lead to the gasoline ? My lead container says ½ oz. to every 5 gallons -- sound about right ? Also, 87 octane or premium (91or higher) ? Thanks
I don't use any lead substitute additives; just straight 87 octane -- ethanol-free if you can find it at a marina or other locations.
