I will start this off with my strangest. I had way back in 1974 a Ford Econoline with a 302. To get to the oil filter you had to reach (kind of blindly) up the side of the engine from the underneath. Having drained the oil & removed old filter went to install new filter. Could not get it to start. After several attempts took old filter & it went wright on no problem. Tried new filter again, would not go on. Took a look at new filter & it had no threads to screw it on. From that day on I check every filter I purchase. I had always checked the gasket but never looked at the threads. Never have seen that again. Only takes once to learn.
