Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets or exceeds OE performance standards
  • Includes an integrated anti-return valve for better startup protection
  • Backed by a comprehensive 2-year or 30,000-mile warranty
  • Precise physical dimensions ensure a secure mount

Cons

  • Requires specific thread compatibility (3/4-16UNF-2B)
  • Not universal; requires strict verification of vehicle fitment
  • Sensitive to improper installation torque

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, ensure the engine is cool and the workspace is clean. Check that the mounting surface on the engine block is free of debris and that the old rubber gasket from the previous filter has been removed. Apply a thin coat of clean engine oil to the new gasket of the OC120 to ensure a proper seal. Hand-tighten the filter until it makes contact, then follow vehicle manufacturer specifications for final torque—typically three-quarters to one full turn. Always cross-reference the 3/4-16UNF-2B thread size against your vehicle's manual, as installing a filter with incompatible threads can cause catastrophic engine damage.
