SUBJECT:
Engine Oil Filters and Drain Plug Gaskets
APPLICATION:
900 and 9000 Models
For reference purposes, listed below are correct part numbers for engine oil filters and drain plug gaskets for all Saab models.
Please note that the 4-cylinder engine oil filter will thread on to a 6-cylinder engine. However, It will cross-thread and loosen up resulting in a loss of engine oil pressure. For further identification purposes. note that the oil filter for the 4-cylinder engine has a rubber flap behind the little holes which acts as a anti-drain back valve. The filter for the 6-cylinder engine does not have this flap. Rather, its anti-drain back function is performed within a casting in the engine block itself.
