[seville1992]

Hello!

My name is Hari and I am looking for this spare part:
OIL FILTER ADAPTER GASKET
Cadillac Part No. 88891759
# 403 in the attached file Cadillac_oilfilter.jpg

The car is a 1992 Cadillac Seville STS 6KY69

www.gmpartsdirect.com says, this part is discontinued. I've polled a dozen online stores, but it's nowhere in stock.
I live in Vienna, Austria (EUROPE) and the local Cadillac dealer tried his best to find it, but no success until now.
Therefore I am grateful for any tip or hint.

Best regards
Hari

Could that be an oil cooler line seal (#6)?

According to my contact person at the service station it is # 5 (PRODUCT NLA)

Look at part # 15 or #10 ........... ??? maybe ........... it's an O-ring seal, not "gasket".

Yes, looks more like an O-ring, but is often deignated as "gasket"

Anyway, both of them are hard to find...

I too having been searching l filter adapter "gaskets' with no luck. My next step is to hit a hydraulic hose store & a heavy equipment dealer such as John Deere or Cat to see if they show that size in their parts catalogs.

the oil filter adapter seal number 88891759 is discontinued , note if you pull the adapter off the block retorque to 15lb only . I'm going to try a small shim under old seal.
