what type a oil filter will fit my 2005 gl 1800, looking at fram but iam confused of the type part number. all the books that i am looking at only gives me the 2001 to 2003 1800 not the 2005??? :stumped:
I think you're right, the guts sure look the same. A NAPA store here had the cutaway exhibit also. A couple years after I got my '90Cummins Dodge I got a Chrysler letter advising not to use certain aftermarked filters due to the possibility of internal collapse. A service manager at a dealership told me it was Fram that caused the problems but they couldn't put the name in the letter due to the lawyers.Wix makes wing filters.
I use wix on avout everything i own. and no problems yet. I also believe that NAPA GOLD oil filters are WiX with a differnt name on them.

Do you know where from please for future reference?Thanks for that Chris, Wix are avaiable in the UK, what a surprise!
Normal anti-clockwise to open.Please,I don't mean to sound ignorant , but are the oil plug and filter on a 1980 gl1100 interstate left or right hand threaded?:?
Keep an eye on eBay they show there off and on.The getleman in Canada that I contacted stated he no longer makes the conversion to the spin on filter for the older wings To expensive for the the materials andnot enough call for them. Bmmer bcause I was looking to do this. Is there another manufacturer for these units? thanks
