1984 Ford Ranger Diesel Perkins 2.2L - Oil Filter Question
Hoping for some advice on changing the oil filter on my 1984 diesel ranger. I have the original owner guide, which recommends a Motorcraft FL-786 (Full Flow) Long-Life oil filter or equivalent, but I know you can't get that type anymore.
The filter they gave me at the parts store wasn't wide enough at the bottom, so oil was leaking. I just put the old filter back on, but not sure what to do--go back to the parts store, or try to special order the correct filter online?
Would appreciate any help!
