Hey guys, I have a 1952 Ferguson TO30 that I just recently changed the oil in with the canister style filter. It leaks like crazy. I'm considering converting to the spin on conversion. Have any of you done this and are there pros and cons to this?

Thanks
 
The one I put on my '54 NAA worked fine. The one I put on my MF 50 leaked. I went back to the canister on it. haven't tried one on
my TO 30.
 
no reason it should leak your missing gasket or not put in right or seal on center bolt only 2 places it could leak
 
My Jubilee was converted to a spin on before I bought it.
After sitting for a few days half the oil in the filter would drain back to crankcase. I tried using different filters, Wix, Napa golds, any filter that would fit. People on YT said I needed to take engine apart and look for the problem

I finally tried a micro guard filter and the drain back problem stopped.

I have no plans to replace the canister filter in Farmall. If it isn't broken why fix it?
 
I can't exactly answer your question as I had a TO-20 gasser and it's been so long I don't remember the oil filter type, location or any of that. However, in
answering the generic question about a conversion, a couple of years ago I did a Ford 3000. Bought a kit off ebay for about 35 bucks. Only question I had
about it was whether or not the kit came with the large Oring that seals the adapter to the engine block....it doesn't show but it's in the kit.

Easy installation. Ford uses the Motorcraft FL-1A which WW stocks, otherwise if not noted, check the threads and the ID-OD for the gasket and you're in
business. If you don't know maybe the UK guys on here can put you on the right spin on. Wix www gives a lot of useful data on filters.
