I just performed my first oil change in my 1979 Series III Petrol, with the original canister style oil filter, and when I go to start it back up it is leaking heavily from the canister. I removed the old gasket and installed the new so that isn't it. Has anyone else ran into this problem? Any instruction would be greatly appreciated.

Also, was it leaking before you replaced the Oil Filter. This could indicate that a previous oil change did not include removing the old O ring. It's been known for 2 or 3 O rings to be in place, thus a good seal is not achieved.Les Parker
