GMC Sonoma Remote Oil Filter Adapter
Question:
Hi, Does anyone have any suggestions for replacing a remote oil filter adapter? I have a 1995 GMC Sonoma 4×4 with a stock remote oil filter adapter. The adapter is made of aluminum and it corroded at the mounting holes since the mounting studs are made of steel. GM designers were not using their heads on this. The bi-metallic corrosion is pretty bad. If anyone knows of a steel version of the stock adapter, that would be great. Otherwise, any ideas on how to prevent corrosion on the aluminum replacement would also be helpful. Thanks. Rich
