I want to use a larger oil filter on my 2000 Nissan Frontier
(4 cylinder).
What criteria do I have to consider when selecting an oversized oil filter?
Besides making sure the oversized filter seals correctly (same size o-ring rubber seal and the internal threads on the base plate are the same as OEM), is there anything else I have to consider?
Is there anything wrong with searching for the largest filter at Wal-Mart with the same size base plate as the OEM filter?
Are there any issues to consider with by-pass valve, etc?
Any help would be appreciated?
