Detailed Description

K&N HP-2001 is a premium engine oil filter designed to support clean lubrication in vehicles that call for an M18 x 1.5 spin-on filter. Its pleated synthetic-blend filtration media is built to capture contaminants while maintaining steady oil flow, which is important for engines that see regular street use and manufacturer-recommended service intervals. The anti-drain back valve helps keep oil in the filter when the engine is off, supporting quicker oil pressure on startup.

This filter is a direct service option for many long-running GM platforms, including Chevrolet Blazer, Chevrolet S10, GMC Jimmy, GMC Sonoma, and Chevrolet Tahoe applications. It also cross-references Wix 51190 for the same application. The HP-2001 is sized at 5.094 inches tall and 3 inches in outside diameter, with a Viton rubber gasket for sealing performance.

Common Problems This Filter Helps Address

• Dirty oil circulation from worn or overloaded filtration media
• Slow filter removal during routine oil changes
