Cross Reference Fram PH-3614. K&N HP-1002 etc.

great!
thanks a lot man!

Bab have you ever changed it before?

24 not easy to remove the oil filter, usually has to come out the wheel well; very hard to remove from underneath the car unless its on a lift-----

this is on a milano... the 24v was from a 164ls, thats why i posted in this section

We don't care where it is the Filter number I gave you or a cross-refernce is good to go and much easier to get in and out than a Fram PH-16 size especially in a Milano where close quarters are even closer.

Yeah make sure you screw it on tight enough too.. I made the mistake of night having it on tight enough, and ended up wasting 6 qt's of fully synthetic mobil1 oil and oil all over my driveway!

Do the 12 and 24 valve engines use the same filter? There are two sizes that fir the 12 valve but I always fit the smaller of the two. Bosch also makes one to fit, I forget the cross reference number, sorry. One of the sizes that fits the 12 valver is a Mopar standard size also fitting a Chrysler motor or two.

Hand tight only!!!

tighten as much as you can by hand! I had to remove a filter from a 24V that was on so tight it wouldn;t budge! Took about 3 hours to get it off what a hassle!

I use the same small 24v filter on the 89 Milano, the 91S and the 94LS. Don't let Gubi hear that you guys are talking about Fram filters, among others.

here's a silly question.... how much oil does this take?
i didn't notice a fill line on the dip stick... but it was pretty dark when i looked last night

About 7 7 1/2 quarts shallow 164 pan and 8 quarts early 12v deep pan.

Do you have 164 pan or Milano 2.5L or Verde 3.0L pan adapted to engine?

Do you know your engine well?

 

[BAB]

not sure but can find out... i just bought the car this week... so information is somewhat limited....
thanks for the info on both systems thought!

Mazda filter fits

I noticed the Purilator(sp?) filters I have been buying for our 2010 Mazda 3 sport fit the 164LS nicely. I use Motorcraft FL300 for the 12v 164s, but they don't fit on the LS for me.
