I shall have to open the hood and have a look. I wonder if there is
anything else in the way?

Anyone out there happen to have a spare filter housing setup from the
123 that they would care to part with for a reasonable sum? My car is
the 115 300D rather than the 240D if that makes any difference to the
housing.

OK, I'm lost in space. What exactly is being offered?
If I read it right, you are making a plate that attaches to the engine
in lieu of the original mount for the oil filter. I assume one would
then run some form of aftermarket oil filter relocation setup to move
the filter onto the inner
Yep, you got it.
One person asked for one in my services advert thread, then another,
and I decided to make it a customizable product.
Some people want one for a remote aftermarket head, some want 2 in
order to relocate the stock housing for ease of access to the IP
internals, or for clearance,
In the 200D 2.4 project, I made 2 plates, one for the engine and one
for the OE oil filter. they were connected with 3 4' lengths of 3/8
hyd hose from a farm store. Plain NPT thread. The oil filter
resides behind the left headlight under the hood.
Yep, you got it.

Could such a plate be used to relocate the oil filter on a W115 to keep oil
from running down your arm when removing the filter for oil changes?

Bingo!
My thoughts exactly. It is so difficult to get the stupid can back on. I
think it was designed to be easy with the car on a hoist at the MB shop
but it is awful to do on the ground.
I am thnking spin on filter like on North American cars.
What think you all of the appropriate filter?
Ja,but.. the OM61x engines used in the 115 have a different
mount to the block. Walt is working on 616 plates for a 123 engine.

Put up a picture of this arrangement, please.
This reminds me of my '65 chevy 283 oil filter. Outer steel can with
large o-ring at top,

If I made one and you were to get one of each type, you could put a
W123 61X filter stand on a W115 616, and
that'd work.

Hello all,
As mentioned in another listmail, I'm tooling up to do a run of filter
relocation plates for the OM617, for those that either want to move
the stock housing or switch to a different housing/filter combination.
The idea started over on the SuperTurboDiesel.com forums, in reply to
