Oil Filter threads
Hi,
Looking for a wee bit of help. I picked up a nice naked 2005 K5 SV650 last week. Went to change the oil today, I had a HiFlo filter on it. As i unscrewed the filter it was very hard to turn and certain points. managed to get it off and attempted to screw a new filter on(also Hiflo). Only gets about 2 turns and literally sticks, looks like the threads have been stripped. My question is how much of an issue is this. Is the threaded stud removable/replaceable. If so how and does anybody know the part number? Many thanks Scott |

Re: Oil Filter threads
here is the part number you need 16591-06B01 Oil Stand Union.
http://www.robinsonsfoundry.co.uk/ then copy paste the part number into the search box or go to your local Suzuki dealer. |

Re: Oil Filter threads
Some people are animals with mechanical parts, oil filter is hand tight then no more than 1/2 to 3/4 turn. The seal gets distorted if tightened up too much and will leak, the natural thing for some people is then to tighten it even more wtf. Previous owner must have used 6 foot stilsons to tighten it up.

Re: Oil Filter threads
Perhaps damaged by cross threading. Always a good idea when putting a new filter on to turn it the wrong way to start with until you feel the thread engage then do up as normal.

Maybe if the filter had a bad thread and a gorilla used a wrench to put it on because it was tight, rather than checking the threads?

Re: Oil Filter threads
I'm just glad its an easy fix.
This is the first time I've came across this when changing oil on any vehicle. With only 20k miles on the clock somebody must have made a real hash of it. Great forum, i really appreciate the quick reply |

Re: Oil Filter threads
I take it this is the same, the three zeroes at the end making no difference?

Re: Oil Filter threads
Wemoto have them too so ordered mine from there. Search in the "OEM Part numbers" box with Bibios part ref.
Cheers all.

Re: Oil Filter threads
i would suggest that people use OEM filters. cheep filters seem like a good idea but in reality its cheep due to less filter media inside the can and bad popper vales. the popper valve is very important as it stops oil flowing at full rate under pressure, if it pops too early then it aint filtering but instead has full flow bypassing the filter media.
modern oils have clumping agents which turn the smaller particles into larger ones so they get trapped by the media inside the filter better. if a popper pops too soon then those clumped particles are not filtered. less filter media also means that it will clog up quicker which in turn puts more pressure on the popper. |
