Installation Notes and Tips

Verify thread size, gasket sealing surface, and overall filter dimensions before installation. Confirm the exact year, engine, and OE reference for your Chevrolet or GMC application, especially on 1999 and 2002 model-year vehicles where notes vary by build date or OE number. Always lubricate the gasket before tightening and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s service procedure for final torque.
