    Lewis, go to your local NAPA parts store and ask for a NAPA 1100 element or a WIX 51100 element. Should fit perfectly.

    Ken is right. The NAPA part number is 1100 and the cost is $12.39. This is the one that fits my canister.

    Take the top off yours and measure the inside diameter to be sure.

    Cannister oil filter hookup?

    Hey Greg

    Just went through the same prosedure and used the old car manual pics.It ends up very well.But beware of one litle detail that is the tiny hole in the sentertube inside the cannister, it has to be open for oil bypass.At the same time the rubber ring inside the cover has to be smooth and in good shape.If you put it in some fresh oil or silicone liquid that will do the job.


    Good luck Martinius.
