The instructions say that trucks use CH 20 type. Does this relate to the filter being more heavy duty for truck oil filtering perhaps ?
Any advise is appreciated.

If you have the 216 with the short side cover, the rocker arm is not fed from the oil distributor valve and thus there is no outlet for the filter. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2014 Posts: 77 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2014 Posts: 77 | Sorry excuse me but I don't know what the short side covers lòok like.
I know theres a copper tube feeding oil to my rocker arms.
I just checked my 1950 216 and the side cover goes from under the rocker cover all the way down to the distributor base.
