FILTERS

[cowboy40]

The 85100C oil filter is truly a hard filter to cross,to a reasonably priced,readily available oil filter. The only one I was able to find meeting these requirments was a CHAMP PH2892. It was not stocked but available next day through AUTO ZONE for about $15.00. The only vehical that I could find that it fit was a early 90s Audi.The canister is longer but works. I won't go into detail on the search,but don't ever use a filter on these tractors without checking the manuf. specs. on the hole size against the nipple size on the mount. I let a proffessional parts store measure my Jinma filter and match it to a Hastings filter,I didnt know the nipple size at the time. It seemed to go on fine and never leaked a drop, than blew off the mount after about 50 hrs. Luckily I saw the oil coming out befor any damage was done.To the best of my knowledge the 85100C has a 24-12 mm threads. If anyone finds another filter to cross it to, please let us all know price and availabiliy. According our NAPA store theNAPA 1515 is a 3/4-16 inch. Which is probable close to the 85100A filter,but I have never seen a Jinma come with standard threades on the filter mount
