Hi Guys,
I went out and bought the Wix oil filter 51515r like a lot of people recommended to get ready for my 1st oil change.
I didn't think to look at the existing oil filter that is on the car from when I bought it from Kirk.
That filter is an STP s3816. This is a smaller filter than the Wix.
The STP filter's height is 3.4,outside diameter 3.0 and the Wix filter 's height is 5.70 and outside diameter is 3.6.
They both have an inside thread size of 3/4-16 thread.
Going to get the car up in the air tomorrow to take a much better look,but not sure if the Wix is going to work.
Any thoughts for this newbie?
