Oil filter problem
I just started my new 292 today but immediatley ran into problems. The seal on the oil filter blew out and started spewing oil all over. I am using the oil filter adapter for Y blocks. Does anyone have this adapter and if so, what filter are you using. Either I am using the wrong filter or something is wrong with my motor and I'm getting to much oil pressure......Thanks......

Are you 100% positive there was not an old "O-ring" or part of one on there when you put the filter on? I have seen that happen several times with screw on filters.
Another thing I have seen is the "O-ring" not be just right on the filter itself when it goes on and it will blow out.
Those are my first two guesses based on seeing that happen to people.
