    If someone could give me, some correct information on filters for a 98 Suzuki. i have done a search and it really confused me. would like to have one that fits right with right thread size. Thanks

    from what i have seen there are basically 2 filter thread pitches on these units (DON'T QUOTE ME) 3/4"-16 or 20X1.5mm. if you can find the number on your filter you can usually go to wix.com or fram's website and cross reference

    you may also want to use search filter on this web site most filters have already been identified

    Blackbelt5, maybe this will help you. WIX 51394 is for 3/4-16 thread adapter, WIX 51365 is for 20MMx1.5 thread adapter, these two filters have the same micron rating and outer diameter.I have a 91 Carry with F6A engine and it uses the 51394. The 3/4-16 filter will not screw onto a 20mmx1.5 adapter but a 20mmx1.5 filter will screw onto the 3/4-16 adapter and will tighten up, but is not correct and could leak or blow off.
