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.
