I recently bought a '94 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 with a utility bed. It's had a lot done to it - new engine and transmission (with receipts), new injectors (w/receipts), and some other stuff. The guy I got it from also got the radiator "flushed" and the oil changed at Sears Auto Center right before I took possession, just to be nice. Oil pressure seemed low to me, and I wondered if maybe they put 5w-20 in it, so I changed the oil with less than 1000 miles on it. Ordered a couple of Hastings filters from Rock Auto. When I got underneath the truck, I thought, "That's weird. There's a long skinny filter on there, and I have a short fat one to replace it with."
Filter that came off was a Purolator TL20195, and Purolator says it should be a 14670. I'm assuming no harm done, since they both have the same thread and the same gasket size, and the relief valve setting is about the same. Still, I'd rather have the correct one.
