i just pulled the oil filter housing off my 99 cherokee classic. i just wanted to know all the parts to the housing assembly. i dropped the housing just after id taken it out and as the torx bolt came out, im not sure if there were any small parts that may have flown out because it happened so fastand im working in a grass field. what i have is the filter housing, the torx bolt, its 2 orings and the housings larger oring. is there any spring of any sort that is supposed to be inside the bolt? anyone have a spread pic of one?
