peugeot 504 or 505 oil filter housing

damagegt

ok i need need some kelp with this .My father is at me to take down a part that he some how broke in the engine of his boat.The engine comes from a peugeot 504 or maybe a 505 2.3(he thinks) hes looking for oil filter housing .I have all the numbers from the block they are:

7940103371
27 b 90 02
Rk6117214

Does any one know where i would get this part iv tried all the main deals and they have told me they dont stock parts that old and none on the scrap yards stop actual engine parts.

heres some pics of what im looking for.

I assume the engine is diesel, then if so its the same 2.3 diesel engine as fitted to the ford sierra if thats any help.

But Your best bet is this lad

he is based in kildare & has 1,000 of cars from the 1960's to 1990's so would be well worth a shout.

If you are still having trouble in locating a filter housing, then you can get a remote oil filter housing which will do the job perfectly. I have used one in a mini rally car for a number of years with no problems. Mocal is probably the best known brand who manufacture these just but just make sure to get one with the correct flow direction as various types are available e.g left to right flow, right to left flow, left in and out flow & various other scenarios. They generally take a ford spin on oil filter. www.demon-tweeks.co.uk supply them as would any decent motorsport shop like murray motorsport in dublin or ears motorsport in mallow co. cork.

Sorry can't help so far other than it'd either a Pug / Indenor XD90 or XD2 engine. XD series engines were fairly common prior to XUDs.

Did they not stick it in a Leyland DAF at some point too?

ya they did but its not the same one.so if its the same in the ford van then thats that out the window.

is it cracked or broken if you got the right man with a tig welder maybe it could be repaired

any chance i could get that number from you aswell

kasper

it would be a delicate enough but there must be a precision engineering place somewhere in cork , a guy that welds trailers wouldnt be able to do it , it has to be tig welded

damagegt

I know.My father (the guy whos looking for the part) was a welder for 15 years and hes brought it to specialist and they have all told him its to thin and will just break again

kasper

email a photo of it with a engineering rule for reference of size to as many precision engineering places as possible and see what turns up , its a few hours work to send the mails but i think it could be done given to the right man

damagegt

its worth a try.you wouldn't believe the amount of time and emails ive sent on this in the last 3 days.Ill get on to my old man and see if he knows anywhere doing that kinda work.keep them coming lads the more places i can try the quicker ill get him off my back.thanks again.

kasper

it wouldnt have to be anyone local you could send it in a package by post or courier

were looking internationaly already .We were told by some of the main scrap yards that that model car was sent to country's such as china and Argentina and reconditioned and was still been used well in the the late 90,s so hopefully some one has to be doing parts there.

kasper

africa springs to mind could be worth a shot

These are available in France, the obvious place. My sister got one for her motorhome on her way through there only a few weeks ago.
I presume that it is the engine where the filter sits upside down on the top of the engine.
