Keep clean oil moving through a hard-working engine with the WIX XP oil filter 51515XP, a spin-on lube filter WIX recommends for extreme driving and for full synthetic motor oil changes. It is a direct-fit application for the 1975-1997 Ford F-150 with the L6-4.9L, the 1975-1996 Ford F-250 with the L6-4.9L and the 1982-1995 Ford Mustang with the V8-5.0L. It also fits hundreds of other listed applications, including Chrysler, Dodge and Edsel models.
- Synthetic blend media: Rated at over 99% dirt-trapping efficiency.
- Silicone anti-drainback valve: Designed to help prevent dry starts by holding oil in the filter while the engine is off.
- Sealing and end caps: An ethylene acrylic gasket, plus solid metal end caps that provide a positive seal.
- Built for extreme duty: Intended for frequent towing and for hauling heavy equipment, RVs and boats. It is also designed to handle the extra demands of extreme temperatures, high dust and mountainous terrain.
WIX rates the XP for extended change intervals of up to 20,000 miles, beyond OE-recommended intervals. As an engine oil filter, it strains contaminants from the circulating oil before that oil reaches the engine's moving parts. Replace it at each oil change according to your service schedule.
