lokking for cross ref oil filter for snapper nxt, 27 HP B&S

Never got the hate on Fram. Unless things have changed, they are the #1 seller of oil filters in the world. So they must be doing something right if they are keeping that title. Are they the best? Nope. Are they good enough? Yep. Would I use one - Yep.

The point is frequent oil changes will do more for your small engines than the best filter in the world. Heck, you could probably run many OPE engines on Extra Virgin Olive Oil and they would still last a long time as long as you changed it frequently.

BTW: I don't use Fram so I have no dog in this fight. I drive a Ford and Motorcraft filters are as cheap as Frams and they are good enough. If I drove something else I'd probably use a Fram.

Just because racers use something doesn't make it good. They typically get their engines rebuilt regularly so it only needs to last a race or 3. And racers use K&N air filters yet it's been documented that while K&N's flow well they also let in lots of fine dust particles which is generally bad for your engine.

Team is best seller in the world mostly because they sell them at Walmart for pennys compared to auto parts store. I think only autozone sells team around here besides Walmart

The NAPA Gold 51348, a 15 micron 7-9 GPM filter can be found online for $2.72 each. You need to order multiples as shipping is about the same for 2 or 12. I bought a case (12) of the Napa Gold 1394 for my Kawasaki 19 hp with a 21micron rating for just over $50 delivered. Most of the other filters I found online for this motor were 25 or 28 micron. I won't have to waste time and expense buying oil filters for a good while.

I would doubt that 90 per cent of lawnmowers even have a pre filter.

I don't know why people take them out and don't use them. Most every riding mower now comes with one
