Hi Bill, I had to ask for help here regarding the installation of my Jubilee oil filter assembly.

I have owned my 49 8N for 27+ years so maybe I can help you out as others here have helped me out at times.

The oil pick-up tube does not come out with the big oil plug underneith the oil pan, only a filter screen comes out with it (along with the old oil). In terms of breaking it loose, you may have to get a long pipe extention on your cresent rench for leverage. It should break loose with the right persuation. (since it is up-side down, make sure you are turning it in the right direction.)

If you want to change the filter, simply loosen the bolt in the top of the filter housing, remove the top, (there is a spring just under that bolt), and there should be a wire handle to get a hold of the filter and pull it out (like a bucket handle). It is rather tight getting it out but it will come. There is also a small plug in the bottom of the oil filter housing you can remove and drain all the oil out there. Reverse the proceedure to put the new filter back in and put the new rubber gasket in the filter top and tighten it back down. HTH (Hope this helps) Rick H. Ga.
