Premium Guard PG195 Engine Oil Filter

Premium Guard PG195 Engine Oil Filter

The Premium Guard PG195 is a spin-on engine oil filter built for a wide range of Ford, Mazda, Jeep, Dodge, and Chrysler applications. It uses enhanced cellulose filter media, a 15–25 micron rating, and an anti-drain back valve to support clean oil flow during startup.

It is a direct replacement choice for many high-volume applications, including Ford F-150, Ford Ranger, Mazda CX-9, and Chrysler PT Cruiser fitments.

Detailed Description

The Premium Guard PG195 engine oil filter is engineered for vehicles that require a spin-on filter with a 3/4"-16 thread and standard-life filtration performance. Its enhanced cellulose media is paired with a bypass relief valve and anti-drain back valve to support consistent oil delivery and help maintain lubrication at startup. The PG195 is a practical replacement for many older and newer domestic and import vehicles, including Ford F-150, Ford Ranger, Mazda CX-9, and Mazda 6 applications.

This part cross-references Wix 51516 and K&N HP-2009 for the same application. Premium Guard PG195 is also listed across multiple interchange references, making it a useful OE-style replacement when matching thread size, gasket dimensions, and filter height are critical.

What It Helps Address

• Dirty engine oil passing through a worn or clogged filter
• Oil drain-back after engine shutdown
• Restricted oil flow from an overloaded filter element
• Incorrect thread or gasket match during filter replacement
• Routine maintenance on vehicles that use a 3/4"-16 spin-on oil filter

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify thread size, gasket outside diameter, gasket inside diameter, and overall height before installation. The PG195 is a spin-on filter, so the sealing surface should be clean and the old gasket removed before the new filter is installed. Confirm vehicle-specific fitment for your exact year and engine configuration, especially on 2009 Ford and Lincoln applications with date-specific notes.
