Installation Notes and Tips

Verify thread size, gasket sealing surface, and filter clearance before installation. The HP-2006 uses a 13/16 in. - 16 thread and a spin-on design, so it should be matched to the vehicle application listed in the fitment data. The 1-inch hex nut can be used for removal when access is limited. Confirm the vehicle’s oil service specifications and follow the manufacturer’s maintenance procedure.
