Cool

coldwar,

Compare the "tractor" filter to the dealer filter. If the tractor filter is the same size as the dealer filter, it should fit. Seems that when I got a filter for my 220D or 240D it said Hudson or Studebaker on the package. Butthat may have been my 190D.

I know how it is changing filters on the older 240D and 300D before they moved the filter to the top. I could never get the filter can out because the frame was in the way. I think it helps to but a jack under the oil pan and lift the engine slightly. You should put a 2X4 between the engine and the jack.
