    Oil Filter Adapter Stripped

    I seem to have a leak coming from the top of the oil filter.

    If I recall correctly, the last time I changed my filter, it did not go on very easily, and I have another oil change due soon.

    I don't want to remove that filter in case the threads are stripped.

    Does anyone know if the threads themselves are replaceable, or would I have to replace the entire oil filter housing?

    Yes, the threaded portion is sold separately.

    Haven’t actually changed one out, don’t know how difficult to remove and install, looks like you will need to add some thread locker on when installing.
