3950/2856A Sized Filters / Rockauto $.53ea

Plus shipping of course.

If you have a need for a large can metric filter RA has some as low as $.53 per. I've used these on my Honda J-Series cars in the past and picked up a few more to run on the Acura while it goes through some cleaning with VRP. (Although I didn't get the $.53 ones)

Good deal! I don't use any of those part numbers but RA seems to be a great place for buying discounted filters.

Yea, they're a big bugger. I doubt they would fit any of the I4 Honda's, but the V6's with the filter hanging off the side they work like a charm.

If anyone wants to know an easy way to find them, look up the filters for a 1986 Mitsubishi Starion (There's a blast from the past).

I had to search that model. Seen a couple in my time but not many. Thanks for the tip.

Are these very similar to the 9688/3593A just an even older part number

The 3593a is a good bit smaller diameter wise. They're about the same height as memory serves.

Lol, I've been around a grand total of one.

I'll have to see if I can find the pictures. We used to have a customer way back in the day that I'm pretty sure was attempting to turn his into the car from the Cannonball Run. There were wires, and sockets everywhere.

I know I have an actual film print picture of it hanging around here somewhere.

I looked it up it's more like a PH16 or PH2 with a M20x1.5 thread, and the gasket is more in line with where it'd typical 3in diameter filter where the 9688/3593 have the gasket in the same place like the 6607 and 7317 or 4967 and 4386,

Yea, the gasket is a bit bigger, I'd never recommend it across the board as a replacement for a 3593, but it does work well for some vehicles that have the space.
