Amsoil filter for Mitsubishi Evo....

[evoboy]

Need some help guys ??!!

Trying to determine the correct Amsoil EAO filter for the Mitsubishi Evo. Specifically an Evo 6 , but I think they are the same as the 7 , 8 & 9. I believe its the EAO21 , the Mitsubishi part number is MD322508 or MD356000. The Amsoil website is not very clear.
Also , when I have determined the correct type , I need 6 of them asap !! Can anyone help with express service ??!! Can pay by Paypal. Cheers

I have master catalog

What is the model? EVO is not anything listed under 1999 Mitsi?

 

[evoboy]

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI is the full designation.
The States did not get the Evo officially until the VIII , but I think the filters are the same.
By the way , I'm based in the UK.

I think you need a Ea013.

ECLIPSE - 2.0L 4-cyl Engine code F DOHC Turbo

BTW I'll be happy to do business with you, but shipping will be quite dear.

PS What is a part # for a generic filter that fits?

 

[evoboy]

Thanks for the reply.
Have never used a pattern or equivalent filter so dont have an alternative part number.
I too have come up with EAO13 , but also EAO21 !!
Do you know the difference between these 2 ?

Scroll down a bit.

EaO13,spin,3.402,2.685,20x1.5mm,2.475,2.173,0.233,8 to 11,Y
EaO21,spin,3.141,3.66,20x1.5mm,2.834,2.462,0.2,13 to 19,Y

It’s a bit scary because Amsoil also list EaO42 for 1999 in the USA (but not 1998):

EaO42,spin,3.950,3.66,3/4x16,2.834,2.44,,8,Y

Measure what you have!

If it will fit physically the EAO 21 is my choice for a Mitsu Outlander with MIVEC 2.4 I4 we use. NO RESTRICTION and capable of 20,000 miles of use with a good lubricant and clean internals. Pabs is a good man and will hook you up. The EAO 21 is a direct cross of the factory filter that there is no replacement for outside of Japan.

Kool , I'll measure up 2moro !! Thanx guys.

Nice car by the way, wish we got those Evo's in the states. I personally don't like the way the Evo is heading with the Evolution X Concept but I like the previous models. I'm glad we at least got the VIII and IX as those were nice

 

[evoboy]

Thanx ! I think the 6 was the pinacle of Evo'ness !! Hardcore looks and handling. Here in the UK we think the 6 will become the cult Evo. Totally agree with you about the 10 , horrible !!!

 

[ThirdeYe]

The IV through VII were my favorites

take care.

 

[evoboy]

OK, looking at purely dimensional criteria , the only EAO filter that will be suitable is the EAO12. On the Evo filter height is an issue due to ground clearance (I Know !!) , diameter an issue due to installation. So , rather than go for it and get 6 , I think I'll take 2 as trial samples initially. So , pablo , let me know the price for 2 with airmail please ??

Watch for a PM.

Thanks,

Paul

So we are all 100% sure the thread is 20mmx1.5mm?

Wix independently and Amsoil both say this.

 

[evoboy]

Yeah , pretty sure its M20 x 1.5

BTW ,I have a reply to yr last PM but yr box is full.

 

[Pablo]

Box cleared, sorry - criminy 1000 messages.

My mate at work is insisting M22x1.5..... I'm saying: "I think not".
