Cuno filter
I noticed some oil splashed up under my hood and I know it's coming from the Cuno filter. Question; does that shaft on the cuno head go bad or wear out? It appears the oil coming from there right under the handle. Thanks, John

Re: Cuno filter
This old post suggests that tightening the packing nut under the T-handle a little may stop the leak.

Taking it apart and cleaning it once in awhile probably wouldn't hurt either.
I see NOS replacement heads on fleabay for $20 plus postage.
Who knows, maybe get lucky and find a replacement packing in the plumbing section at the local hardware store?
Good luck!

Re: Cuno filter
I just bought the head for $15 and I have some new gaskets for the bowl laying around here. Thanks Ron, John
