Oil Filter - is spring clip required


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know what the purpose of the spring clip is in the oil filter assembly?

 

As mine doesn't seem to have one, I noticed this during a recent filter change.

I assume you mean the one that holds the plate/spring etc onto the centre bolt. Its supposed to stop all the bits falling out when draining the canister and they are quite often missing.
