Detailed Product Description

The Baldwin B118 engine oil filter is specifically designed to meet the filtration requirements of various Ford, Isuzu, and Nissan engines. Its 5 3/8 inch height and 3 11/16 inch outside diameter ensure proper fitment and compatibility. The integral gasket (G381-A) provides a reliable seal to prevent oil leaks, while the anti-drainback valve helps maintain oil pressure by preventing oil from draining out of the filter when the engine is off. This feature is particularly important for Nissan 510, 720, and 810 models, where maintaining oil flow during startup reduces engine wear.
