im leaking oil from either my oil filter seal or my oil press adapter

i tight both of them down really snug and seem like its not leaking any more

but after i run the car a lil its still leak im pretty confuese

coz me and my friend tight both of them down really tight

and both the filter and the adapter r brand new

new seal and everything

ahrmike

what type of filter are you using? Is it an OEM or aftermarket? When you installed it, did it have an OEM or aftermarket filter. If aftermarket, the gasket could be faulty or the old gasket could have still been stuck to the block.

If I'm reading your post correctly you have a sandwich adapter and you can't figure out where the leak is coming from.

Here's a suggestion: Clean the area up really well, wrap a bunch of paper towels around the sandwich adapter & filter base, then take the car for a spin. Remove the paper towels and pay attention to where they are oil soaked. That will tell you where the leak is coming from.

You only have a few places that can cause a leak: The sandwich adapter O ring, the filter O ring, or the threads to the oil pressure sender.
