I am down to my last few leaks. I got fed up with the crappy (scew on in place of the
oil filter) housing leaking. I just put a shorty spin on filter in place of it and found a washer and nut on the discharge pipe coming out of the block (351c). I haven't banged on Fords much and am still learning. What in the heck is that nut and washer for? I removed it prior to spinning on the filter but now, thought I'd better ask before starting the engine... Thx.
