For remote oil filter kits; Use 3850559 or 835440. Note! for later 8.1L engines only use 835440, 3850559 will not clear the ignition coils mounted below the filter. Note! for 7.4/8.2L only use 3850559. Caution! Gas engines require a precise oil fill level to operate correctly. Overfilling results in high operating temperatures, foaming (air in oil), loss of power and reduced engine life. Underfilling causes loss of lubrication. Always check for correct oil fill on the dipstick when changing engine oil. M=maximum, N=minimum
