Wix oil filter number
When Tom finished up my car recently I changed the oil for the first time in too many years to recall (5 I believe, car sat in the garage). I bought a Wix filter for the Porsche 944 (tall cannister, correct thread) and the part number for that filter is 51287. Expensive little bugger though at $14.00.

Re: Wix oil filter number
purolator is a great one and the # is L30165.
I bought a dozen of they on the web for a steel a while back I will look for the source. The company had a special for a certain zip code and when you went to the site it asked for your zip. That got me to the price that saved me about $10 each filter. For the shipping address I simply put in my correct address, unrelated to the previous zip I entered, and it worked like a dream!! Some others did the same thing so maybe some one has the information on it. I will see if I can find it. |

Thread NECRO!!
Just thought I would add after doing some more research. Quote:
Also, http://www.ntpog.org/reviews/filters/old_filters.shtml STockers Looks like the M-105 would fit also as an alternative to a large filter. Last edited by liamrh; 12-12-2008 at 08:01 PM. |

Re: Wix oil filter number
Purolator L30251...
http://www.partsamerica.com/productd...tNumber=L30251 links right to the page. just put them in the cart at $8.68 each order a few $75 worth and get free shipping and no sales tax for most of us. This is a really tall one...5.8 inches high... with twice the micro rating, 32 as opposed to 19... what ever that means... Sounds better to me! Last edited by kwren; 12-12-2008 at 09:25 PM. |

A sock and some twist ties are pretty cheap if that is what your looking for.

He would do an oil "change" by filtering the customers used oil through pantey hose and put the oil back in their cars and charge them for new oil! liamrh, that wouldn't by any chance be you would it?? Sorry, I missed your point. Purolator is a pretty good filter. The normal list price is $20 and change. |

Re: Wix oil filter number
Yeah, $20 and change would definitely mandate the panty hose method oil change.

Re: Wix oil filter number
I *believe* that the micro rating should be micron rating and if so 32 is much worse than 19 as this refers to particle size that is captured by the filter.

Re: Wix oil filter number
kwren - I think the smaller the micro rating the better.
See attached. |

Now I am wondering what size particles are actually important to filter out? Also filtering out smaller ones might stop or restrict the flow through the filter much quicker, giving it actually a much shorter life of filter efficiency, especially when we believe the "extended" ump-teen-thousand mile oil claims? Interesting world, eh? Keith |

Re: Wix oil filter number
Smaller partical size, but much more filter material so it shouldn't clog very fast. I still change the filter at 3,000 miles or so.
