Oil filters again!

[Tovel]

It is so tight in there, but will look to see where those lines go, a turbo makes sense, but there is not one on this engine, perhaps in a past life it had one. They are both dripping oil though, the bolt plug is not a good fit.

Would that plate on the oil filter be a oil cooler? The two lines coming off that are not plugged, and nothing comes out of them.

Are you sure that they are not for coolant not oil ? These things can have an oil to water heat exchanger (the thing your oil filter screws onto) much like most VW's, BMW's, Benz, newer Suzuki SUV's, and many other vehicles intended to be operated in harsh climates. The exchanger may have been leaking oil into the coolant and some one blocked it off (That is pretty much about what I did except I didn't use bolts, I looped the hoses and welded the nipples shut). If you were to reconnect them you may wind up with oil in the coolant. If any one knows where to find these things (heat exchangers) for sale, so far it looks like at least 3 of us could use them.

When I got my daihatsu I crossed the number to a K&N filter and it is part number HP-1003. I looked at a fram but the bypass PSI was higher and the K&N matches the wix 8-11 bypass PSI but better flow rate and smaller micron filter. Plus its nice to have the 1" nut on the end on the filter. Also HP-1003 is easy for me to remember because both of my last two toyotas used the same filter

Not to beat a dead horse on the oil filter cross reference game, but here is some info that might help someone that's new:

My original filter that came off my Suzuki was a "Suzuki Genuine P/N 16510-81420". My local parts stores did not have this in their systems, and the Suzuki dealer was not any help either. Internet!

Found on WIX website that oil filter crosses to WIX #51348.
Which is also ProTec by WIX # 130, also Fram PH3614

The ProTec and Fram are bigger filters, the outside gasket diameter on the Suzuki one was 2.475", inside was 2.156", the outside gasket edge on the ProTec by Wix is 2.74" and inside is 2.39". It looks ALOT bigger, and looks like it won't work, but it fits and works on mine. Not sure exactly why or how this is a cross reference match, but hey, it works right?

To further this point, if the threads fit, and it seals, it really doesnt matter what filter you use... I came to this realization a few years ago when I got an amsoil bypass filter for my last diesel vehicle which had a universal adaptor for oil filters. If i recall correctly, the kit had two basic sizes (large and small). from there i used the Amsoil filters which came in various sizes from large to rediculously huge. nice part was changing the filter was way less messy. =D

Wonder if this one would work:

If you change to somthing too crazy, you may have an oil pressure problem though...

Baldwin (USA) made oil filters get my nod. Very high quality and a long ago, found but now lost evaluation of many of the available filters ranked them very high. For Mitsi it is B1402 and even the longer B1431.

For a 95 Suzuki Carry F6A engine - I used a PH4967 , it was the same size, diameter and length as the japanese filter that came off of it. However all my research came up with an original Suzuki number of SGP 16510-81420, Napa could cross this to a 1348 but it was much larger in diameter then original Japanese filter.
The napa 1394 is the cross to the PH4967.

Fuel filter Napa 3470 worked.
Plugs NGK 3932
Airfilter - Napa 2143 (never got to test it ) Measured 3.4" ID x 5.125 OD x 5.28" Long.
Wipers OEM 16" drivers, 14" passenger side.
Tires - 5.70 x 12 skidder tire fits oem wheels w/o a lift kit.

Hope this is useful to someone.

If you even remotely care about your engine you will never run a FRAM filter. They are lowgrade junk and I wouldn't use one on a lawnmower. WIX is the same price and a much better design with a silicon anti-drainback valve. Wix also has twice the amount of filter media for less back pressure and longer service life. If you ever get around to cutting open filters you will see what I mean, it's obsene how crappy the FRAMs are.

The only time you can run into a oil pressure issue with the wrong filter is if you run something much smaller than intended, something you would be very hard pressed to do on a mini.

Run the largest body filter you can squeeze into the avail. space, you will get much more filter media, some added volume which inturn can give you some added cooling of the oil.

Probably should have posted this here originally, but here is a link to another thread on getting WIX filters cheap, IF you buy in bulk:
