Default Re: Oil filter mounting

The first location was at the fuel pump, a hollow mounting bolt with a banjo fitting. Changed in 1940 due to excess oil vapor escape from the breather. Same bolt was then used for mounting at the distributor. That was messy also, so postwar relocated to the dipstick boss. There was no other stock return method.
