i can answer the Lucas part, its lucas oil, i use it in my cummins they have fuel treatment and also have lucas oil also for front diffs and you can also put it in your crank oil i believe. Im more familiar with the Lucas fuel treatment as im a regular purchaser of it.

Okay after several attempts to track down a primary filter housing gasket im going to go the easy route and do as cranetruck(Bjorn) has done, the smaller gasket in the box that comes with *Carquest filter #86512 (which is a secondary filter itself) will fit the primary housing, and the salesman...
