E-Series VansTechnical discussion of topics related to vans powered by any of the Navistar engines. This covers a broad number of years, but there isn't enough demand to split it any further.
What prevented them from doing the oil change? You don't *have* to change the bypass filter -- unless you instructed them to do so...
On the other hand, you may have answered your own question. If your filter, in fact, uses a toilet paper roll then they should have no problem finding a "filter"... so to speak. Have them just open it up and look...

Next on the List: a blown tranny!
I think it was an excuse for them to get my van out of their shop so that they could work on the roomier and cleaner engine compartments in the new trucks doing high profit mods
I ended up going to the quick lube (of course they had never seen or heard of one of these either) and I did the Frantz filter change myself
