generic oil filter question... 200 83 rustbucket

posted by  someone claiming to be joe on  Thu Aug 2 02:50 CST 2001 [RELATED]

So this may sound stupid, but I am just beginning working on my car myself.

Can any oil filter be used on any car? To be more specific - I bought a case of 10 Mann oil filters from IPD, because they fit on both my 1983 245 and 1998 S70 T5. The question is, can I also use them on my 1992 Volkwagon Jetta? It would simplify thing greatly, and allow me to keep only one brand in the garage (and cheaper in bulk).

Thanks. Joe

ps - gonna be a big day for the 245 on Sunday. another new tranny oil pan gasket (gonna use UltraBlue this time). Gonna have a crack at the flame trap as well.
