By-Pass Oil Filter Installations

1998 Subaru Forester S (SUV) 2.5L
AMSOIL Dual Remote By-Pass Filter System
Submitted by AMSOIL Dealer CD Rowsell

Special Instructions:

The Dual-Gard Mount assembly was placed forward of the left front wheel well, underneath the mounting box for the battery. The battery was removed so the bolt holes could be drilled in the battery pan for attaching the dual guard mount assembly.

Limited clearance around the Dual-Gard Mount precluded installing the oil sampling petcock valve.

To maintain proper fitting clearance between the spin on adapter and the under engine cover, 2 BK-11 fitting kits were purchased for the 2 short 90 degree fittings. (See spin on adapter photos)

The distance and routing of the hoses from the spin on adapter to the Dual-Gard Mount required purchasing four feet of hose (BP-217)

The final installation resulted in the entire system looking like it was installed at the ‘factory’. I believe this installation procedure is applicable in almost any late model Subaru.

I have to thank Joe at Ron Price Subaru. His knowledge of Subaru vehicles and skills in determining how to install the system in the vehicle resulted in this extremely clean installation.
