An adapter for mounting a conventional spin-on oil filter to the accessory of a Continental six cylinder aircraft engine. The adapter includes a tee casting and a hub which is threaded to screw into an oil screen hole of the accessory case. The tee casting has sleeve with a through bore and a base with an end for receiving a spin-on oil filter. When installed, the hub is journaled into the bore of the sleeve and screwed into the oil screen hole, which has two oil passage openings. A crown at the outer end of hub engages the sleeve of the tee casting and secures the tee casting against the accessory case. Oil input and oil output passages are formed in the hub and base. The oil input and output passages communicate with the oil passage openings and spin-on filter to circulate oil from the engine, through the spin-on filter and back to the engine.
