Hello CBA. Wasn't sure what you meant... Do you mean the hollow threaded thing the oil filter screws onto (it came loose a few times in my hands but you can just screw it in tight again??) or something else like the little bolts where the oil filter screws on?? Duh, haven't got a clue more than that really!! Happy new year
Ta, bog.

If you mean the oil filter thread size?

84' and before, 340 has the same as a 360 3/4-16 UNF
After 84' they changed the thread to 20x1.5

The filter itself, i'm just 'buying a filter for it' but there's 2 sizes, m20 and 1/4" I think, Idont know which one.

Clue is the "J" of the chassis number = 1988. Therefore:

After 84' they changed the thread to 20x1.5

Volvo 3467632 (was 3287999)
