FAQs
What oil funnel kits is this adaptor compatible with?
This adaptor (Part No. 9374) is designed to work with Laser oil funnel kits, specifically Part Nos. 7980 and 9120.
Which Renault and Nissan engines are supported by this adaptor?
The adaptor is designed for Renault and Nissan diesel engines including 1.2 eTech, 1.6L, and 1.9L DCi variants.
Is this adaptor suitable for all Nissan or Renault diesel engines?
No, it is specifically for the 1.2 eTech, 1.6L, and 1.9L DCi engines. For 1.5 DCi engines where the dipstick is integrated into the filler cap, you will need Part No. 9316.
How do I ensure a proper seal?
Ensure the adaptor's internal seals are clean and that the 2-pin locking tabs are fully engaged with the cam cover's filler neck. A secure click should indicate engagement.
What material is the adaptor made from?
The adaptor is made from durable, molded plastic.
Can I use this adaptor with non-Laser brand oil funnels?
While it might physically connect, we cannot guarantee compatibility or a secure seal with non-Laser brand funnels. It is designed specifically for Laser Part Nos. 7980 & 9120 for optimal performance.
How should I clean the adaptor?
Clean the adaptor with a damp cloth after each use. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or solvents that could degrade the plastic or seals.
Troubleshooting
Adaptor does not fit securely
Verify that you are working on a compatible Renault/Nissan diesel engine (1.2 eTech, 1.6L, 1.9L DCi). Ensure the adaptor is aligned correctly with the cam cover's filler neck and that the locking tabs are fully engaged. If the engine is a 1.5 DCi with a dipstick in the filler cap, you require Part No. 9316.
Oil leaks around the adaptor during use
Check that the adaptor's seals are clean and properly seated. Ensure the locking tabs are fully secured, providing a tight seal against the cam cover. If the seals appear damaged or worn, the adaptor may need replacement.
Adaptor is difficult to remove after use
Gently twist and pull the adaptor upwards. Avoid excessive force. Ensure no oil has solidified around the seal. A slight cleaning around the interface may help.
