I know it's tight but "can't?" that sux. ...can you use a BIG oil filter (ph25) or did you have to go down to the smaller ph3506?
Yep, we tried it from every angle possible, the big starter was a no go. For the oil filter, we are using Wix 51045, it is 4.828" long and 2.921" in diameter, which I believe is smaller in diameter, but longer than the PH25. Thanks for the help
