Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this filter fits my specific engine model? A: Please review the "Compatible Engine Models" table on this page. Cross-reference your engine or drive system model with the list. Verifying the OEM part number (858488) against your service manual is the most reliable method.
