Wow thats amazing and really cool, sadly tonight I bought a small can Mopar filter for my "new" 99.
Being a Ford family we have half a dozen FL1A's in stock, I may go that route and put the Mopar filter on the shelf.

Mewonders if 5qts. is enough for a 4.0 with the big can ?

The crankcase capacity of the 4.0 is 6qts so with the big filter it'd come around to 6 1/4 quarts.

 

Ah, thank you.

 

here fixed it for you:

Brand - Part #

AC Delco - PF2
Fram - junk
K&N Gold - HP-3001
Mobil 1 - M1-301
Motorcraft - FL1H
Napa Gold - 1515
Purolator - 230001
WIX - 51515

 

does this fit the 2000 wj 4.0L? huh? i alrdy bought the recomended one for K&N HP-2004 so i dun wanna get home with the HP-3001 and find it no workie

 

:rofl::laugh::rofl Moparrr



Not 100% sure because I don't whether they screw in horizontally or vertically on a WJ. The book cross references the stock #'s with the large ones and your K&N matches up so it will fit the threads, clearance might be the issue here. Also not sure how this pertains to the v8's.

 

L6 4.0L it mounts horizontal on the side of the block

AND WTF IS THAT FRAM DOING HERE?

Then it looks like you're golden my friend.

:laugh: I included it for the die hard Frammers because it seems like there are a lot of them left.

 

Well the 4.0L is hard to kill even when abused they still seem to run.

 

the 4.0L is 6qts oil expands when its warm.....

 

True but 5qts does not turn in to 6 qt, more importantly oil gets thinner when it is warm

You should change your oil when your engine is at running temp. This is so all the oil drains out. If you start your jeep cold and move it 10 feet to do an oil change it has thrown cold oil all over your engine where it will stay much longer then it would if it was hot.

I have found you will get ~1 qt more oil out of a change if you do it when the motor is warm vs. cold.

 

I use the NAPA Gold #1068 on mine. It is bigger then the stock one. I will have to check the 1515 to see what it is.

 

I have never seen an oil filter plug completely up when changed at normal intervals so keeping the oil cleaner longer can only really be had if you have a by-pass setup or use a finer media type.

Nonetheless I have always run a larger filter because the bigger the volume the more soot it takes to saturate the oil. Ah yes reminds me of the double digit sump capacities that most diesels have.

 

Here's the two NAPA Gold filter spec's, 1515 and 1068. The only differences that I see is that the 1515 is 7-9 GPM flow and a little taller. The 1068 has a flow rate of 9-11 GPM.

Can anybody confirm that the HP-3001 K&N fits a 2000 WJ 4.0L L6

 

10 characters

 

But it isnt completely dry the metal has an oil coating on the surface.

 

Does anyone know part # it would be for a walmart supertech?

 

WHY ARE U STUCK ON SUPERTECHS!.. Same boat as Fram IMO

 

I know I brought death thread back to life, but can some one confirm that I can run longer filter, that mound on the side of the block ? its still fit ?

 

does your oil filter stick out of your motor or does it use the adapter?

if it sticks out the block I know for a FACT you can put a larger filter cause i run one. Hp-3001 fits the 4.0 amsoil Ea0-015 fits both add about 3/4 quart.

 

I just did an oil change...they didnt have any Mopar one but they said a larger one from a Land Rover Discovery 4.0 bolts right in..and it did..SO now I have a large white filter from a Landie in my Jeep
