Product Information

Full details

The Apico Oil Filter Cover is designed for Motocross and Enduro riders seeking to upgrade their engine's aesthetics and oil cooling efficiency. Engineered from durable aero-grade aluminium, this cover improves internal flow rates to ensure optimal oil circulation through the filter. While it offers superior durability and a sleek finish compared to stock components, users should ensure their specific engine casing surface is clean during installation to prevent potential oil leaks.

FAQs

Does this cover come with a new O-ring?

No, it is typically designed to reuse the OEM O-ring. Always inspect your existing O-ring for wear before installation.

Will this fit a 2-stroke Gas Gas model?

No, this product is specifically designed for the 4-stroke Gas Gas MC-F and EC-F engine configurations.

Is the aluminium finish durable?

Yes, the anodised finish is designed to be highly resistant to corrosion and typical wear-and-tear from off-road riding.

Can I use the original bolts with this cover?

Yes, this cover is designed to be a direct replacement using your existing OEM hardware.

How often should I clean the cover?

It should be cleaned during every oil change to inspect the condition of the O-ring and ensure no debris has built up around the seal.

Troubleshooting

Oil weeping or leaking after installation

Check that the O-ring is seated correctly in the groove and that the mating surface was cleaned of all debris.

Difficulty threading mounting bolts

Do not force the bolts; back them out and ensure the cover is perfectly aligned with the bolt holes before re-threading by hand.
