Oil filter & Air filter part numbers...

[Richard 34A]

Hello Everyone;

I'm looking for part numbers for both the oil and air filters for my 2005 Winnebago / Workhorse W-20 chassis. Not sure what brand to use, FRAM, Delco, NAPA, etc. I like to change the oil and filter approximately every 3,000 miles or so.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

[Richard 34A]

If you use the "FIND" feature and enter "oil filter" you should come up with serval dozen hits on the subject.

Try it - you'll like it!

Right off the bat I would like to suggest AC/Delco PF-454. Now the coversation should go uphill from there. I'm currently using a NAPA Gold 1060 filter. I have used WIX, Hastings and Mobil 1 all with a high degree of confidence.

NAPA also has a "Gold" quality air filter however the number escapes me at the moment but it's listed here somewhere.

You can use the "find" button and search for "filters" or "spare parts" and go to older post that have all the information and part numbers.
Hope this helps.

Thanks DriVer;

I did use the search feature but came up with different numbers; I also checked out the 2006 Workhorse chassis guide. Part of the confusion is that I went to NAPA today to buy filters and they couldn't cross-reference any numbers. Found them on-line later at NAPAonline.com, but wasn't 100% since you can't search using 'Workhorse' as the chassis.

I like to change the oil and filter every 3,000 miles, so I didn't want to get caught up in a huge oil-filter thread. Don't need something that will take me cross-crounty on one oil change.

Thanks,

Lots of numbers, and a lot of them don't seem to cross-reference easily. Here's what I found, using the FRAM, NAPA and WCC websites.

Workhorse 8.1L (L18)

NOTE: Part numbers are for 2004 and NEWER! The WCC 2006 Chassis Guide shows these as valid part numbers for 2001-2003 also.

Oil Filter:
FRAM: PH8873
NAPA Gold: FIL 7099
NAPA Gold: FIL 1060 (Large Capacity)
WCC: 25324052

Air Filter:
FRAM: CA8127
NAPA Gold: FIL 6316
WCC: W8800481

If anyone has the part numbers for the larger oil filters, please post. I couldn't find or cross-reference the larger oil filters.

Oil capacity with the standard-size oil flter is 6.4 qts. 5w-30 oil. (Per the 2006 Workhorse Chassis Guide.)

Thank you,

[DriVer]

Thanks for the part number max49; if you use a larger than stock oil filter, does it effect the oil pressure? If the filter is four times the OEM, does it lower the oil pressure at all?

Thanks,

[DriVer]

Now does a filter 10 times larger filter better? Depends to No

What is "your" oil change strategy? Knowing this, a better game plan can be suggested if that's what you're looking for.

I do not subscribe to the principal that "huge" oil filters work any better on the 8.1L than a reasonably sized filter or the OEM sized filter.

While attending a WCC maintenance seminar the speaker told us that WCC is not a BIG fan of FRAM filter products. This is for good reason please see the post regarding oil and air filters for the full story.

Thanks for the info, DriVer. Found the thread that you referred to; looks like FRAM is out, but I have a NAPA nearby, so I'll try the Gold series air and oil filter.

I like to have the oil changed every 3,000 miles, but have always paid to have it serviced. I'm going to change the oil & filter in the engine, along with the Onan generator, myself this time. Depending on how it goes, I'm hoping to do it myself from now on...

I have a single hand pump Lincoln grease gun with a rubber hose. Clean the zirk before greasing with a rag and pump in grease until you see it just begin to flow from the socket or joint.

When greasing your front suspension take the weight off of the front tires and also unload the drive shaft. Chock your wheels and apply the parking brake.

Download the Chassis Guide for additional information about chassis grease points.
