If in doubt, try Dow-Corning Compound #4. We used it on oil filters and assembling the shock struts in aircraft landing gears since it is designed to cause the seal/ o-ring to swell slightly. I’ve never had an oil filter leak since I started using it.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
