Dear Coen,

Fitting the Series One Club oil filter conversion set is a strait forward
job. 

Basically the same job when changing a used filter for a fresh one. Handling
the little bolts in the tight space is the worst of it.
The arrangement and fittings for the pipes are the same.

Next time you change the filter you enjoy the easiness of the spin of
construction.

One of the photos, rebuilding my engine, shows you the conversion set. Note
that only one of the pipes is fitted now. See the Opperduit LandRover
section in our Series one garage.

Subject: SER1 question and New tires for my mineva!

Hello everybody, just a little update:

For my 1952 Minerva,

I want to change my oil filter to the series one club modified one. Do 
you have any tips witch will make the work easy(er)?

A while ago I asked you about the best tire size for my Minerva. After a 
lot of thinking, I bought 5 new tires.
I choose Michelins, XZL's ( also known as 4X4-OR) in the 700 size. They 
are radials and modern tires. I am very satisfied, steering is much 
improved, the tires are within the land rover specs, and I did gain a 
little cruising speed, probably just enough to keep up with most of the 
trucks. The tires are narrow and high, and look more or less the same as 
the bargrips witch were mounted by the Belgium army!
