## Discrepancy

MOUNTING STUD TOO LONG, APPROX .200 LONGER.  INSTALLED OIL FILTER AFTER OIL CHANGE, RAN ENGINE TO LEAK CHECK AND LOST ALMOST 2 QTS OF OIL.  INVESTIGATION FOUND THAT THE OIL FILTER STUD WAS TOO LONG CAUSING THE FILTER TO TORQUE BEFORE SEAL TOUCHED FLANGE, LEAVING .050 GAP.  REPLACED FILTER WITH SAME PN BUT WITH SHORTER STUD AND LEAK CHECKED, OK.  (K)
