FYI. In case your dealer has stopped carrying the oil filter kit with the o-rings, NAPA has it. It's number 4941 and comes with the filter and o-ring kit and it's a chunk less money. In fact, it's a WIX filter, so it's good stuff. No Fram junk here.

I have been using the Champion X321 filter. They are readily available and come with the big O ring ( but not the small one).

Rumour has it that these are the same filters that Mobil brands as it's own, but a lot cheaper.

Slinky,

I use the K&N oil filter (KN-192) which comes with both 'O' rings, available from 'YB filters' who sell them on ebay all the time.

'buy it now' price is £11.43 at present.

Johnny,

The Champion filters are £2.99 at Halfords.

£11.43 is an awful lot for an oil filter.

As a Scotsman, you should know this :-D

oops! another cunningham flaw exposed. I've never known the value of money, as some of you already know.

For those of you here in the States, I usually get the K&N at a local shop for $6.95
