oil filters are a heated topic here so i'll just say i think the general consensus is stay away from fram for anything. however, to answer your question.. i don't know but my '98 t-bird sport accepts the CH6012.

Yes, Fram CH6012 is correct for the T3 motor.

many people, not just on this forum, have experienced fram filters failing on them. i've heard of incidents from a simple collapsed filter to pieces of the filter have gone missing to damaged engines. this being the "idiotnet" take your pick on which to believe. myself, having never heard of such rampant failure from any of the vast majority of other filters, i choose to steer clear of impending disaster at any level. therefore, no fram for anything i own.


a simple google search of "fram oil filter failure"

Does it come with the correct "O" rings?

Weren't the questionable Frams the spin ons? It seems the type used on these bikes with the metal end caps didn't have any problems. I'm using Emgo, but they came without O rings.
