    Have a 68 freightliner with a 750-c luberfiner on it and have never replaced the element. Anybody know how to do this correctly and any idea what filter it uses. Has a 671 detroit in it. Do not have a vin number and my dad has passed so short of info here. Thanks!

    Wow what a blast from the past. I'm sure your local truck parts can get you the proper element.

    Find the drain plug on bottom, remove clamp on top half to change filter, any truck pro or parts house will have new filter + gasket it will fill slowly crack vent on top till oil shows.

    Do you need to loosen vent on top to allow air out after starting engine?

    Yes he does, hear that op? Drain it, chg filter, put together and crank.....open vent and standby, tighten vent when oil arrives. Recheck and top off engine.

    671 huh ? Still runs? Get yourself a blower speed kit and 6 / 9290's ( injectors ) That will get you bout 270 hp. Throw in a turbo and intercooler and we can bust 300hp. Find a source of ice cold water and we can cross 350 hp.

    Good luck !!

    Runs good but oil pressure is getting weak so I thought I would change the oil and filters. Only runs grain from field to bin. Longest run is 1.5 miles one way. Thanks for replies.
