I don't understand how the filter inside the oil pan can do any filtering. I put a new oil pan on today. There is two cages that the filter fits inside. One solid and the inside cage is wire mesh. The filter fits on a shaft and there is also a entrance or exit line along side the filter in the cages. Can someone explain how the filter works. Bill H.

Bill, the filter on your TO is a outflow, or backwards filter. The oil flows out a couple small metering holes in the downpipe, into the fliter, and out into the pan. The filter doesn't provide 100% filtration, it only filters the oil off the center bearing. My opinion is the screen is the most important part of the whole set-up. That keeps crud from being sucked into the pump.
You can get a spring for a couple bucks from an AGCO dealer.

The filtering system does not look like much but it must work for as many TO-20 and TE-20s that are still around. The shaft that the filter slides up on has holes in it for the oil coming from the crankshft to be pumped thru the filter from the inside out. The oil is then picked up by the oil pump to be circulated again.

The other pipe line along side the filter inside the cage must be a return line. Sure would make changing oil easier with a spin on filter. Thanks Paul

should be a spring under the filter to hold it up to the engine but over the years most have been lost because they are a pain to put in . so you should have the filter [1] a washer [2] spring [3] and gasket [4] cover [5] center bolt[6]

The spring is supposed to push the filter away from the engine onto the oil pan.

Thanks Marlow for the information. I will keep this information so that the next time I change the oil and everthing falls in my catch pan I will have the order to reassemble. By the way the new oil pan I put on came from this Yesterday's site.
