RE: [Chrysler300] 57 - 392 Filter Can oil leak

["John L. Chesnutt" <chesnutt@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dave,

Regarding the hex hold down bolt/shaft oil leak. I fixed my leak by using faucet valve stem packing and wrapping it around and under the hex hold down bolt.  The packing that I used was graphite-asbestos.

 

This should fix your problem.

Subject: [Chrysler300] 57 - 392 Filter Can

 

Hi To All,

     After fixing a leak in the filter can by replacing the base gasket, the leak

has shifted to the hex holddown bolt/shaft.  This is a problem I've not had to address in 40 years of ownership.  Is there a method of resealing this area?

Upon removal of the filter can/shaft assembly, it doesn't look easy to separate the shaft from the can.
