Detailed Description

Mobil 1 M1C-251A is an engine oil filter cartridge intended for vehicles that use a cartridge-style filter housing rather than a spin-on canister. The listed dimensions, including the 1.06-inch inner diameter bottom and 2.46-inch top and bottom outer diameters, help support correct fitment in the specified Toyota and Lexus engines.
