Description
Protect your engine from damaging dry starts and make oil changes a breeze with the Baxter Performance Subaru Oil Filter Anti-Drain Back Adapter (SS-102-BK). This innovative adapter is an essential upgrade for any Subaru owner with a top-mounted oil filter, including the WRX, BRZ, GR86, and many more.
Designed with a full-flow check valve, the SS-102-BK keeps your oil filter and feed passages full of oil, even after your engine has been shut off. This ensures instant oil pressure at startup, eliminating that harsh cold-start rattle and significantly reducing premature engine wear.
But it's not just about protection—it's also about convenience. The adapter features a built-in air valve that lets you completely evacuate the old oil filter before you remove it. This means no more spills, no more messes, and a cleaner, faster oil change every time.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Instant Oil Pressure: Eliminates dry starts and loud startup clatter by keeping the oil filter primed.
- Reduces Engine Wear: Ensures critical engine components are lubricated from the moment you turn the key.
- Mess-Free Oil Changes: The built-in air valve allows for clean, no-spill oil filter removal.
- Durable & High-Quality: Machined from high-grade aluminum with a durable black anodized finish.
- Easy Installation: Replaces the factory adapter and installs in minutes with no permanent modifications.
- Made in the USA!
