Have a 19 HP Briggs on a Ariens tractor like to know of a larger oil filter option for a #492932 BS #. Thanks

This has been asked before on here and it was found out it wasn't worth the extra money........

Does your engine have an oil filter installed now, and you are seeking a longer/larger fiter ??
If so,.. post your engine model # and or oil filter #

BOUD I THINK you're talking about replacing the "sump" with an oil filter adapter built-in, this fella may just be wanting a higher capacity filter .......

#492932 BS this is the OEM filter that came with the tractor.

This has been discussed on here before and larger capacity filters don't buy you anything.

On a residential unit (30-100 hours per year), you'll change the filter during its annual oil change without ever having reached the filter's hour limit.

On a commercial unit, if you hit the hours limit, you need to change oil and filter anyway.

But if you're determined, take a look at the Wix 57035 which crosses over to your B&S number. http://www.wixfilters.com/Lookup/PartDetails.aspx?Part=209331
All the necessary information is there. Match up the threads, burst pressure, O.D., flow rate, micron rating etc, but has a longer OAL.

For a larger filter you can use a Briggs filter 491056.

No Boo, I was talking about the thread that C Purvis is talking about also.......

YEP ! That was my assumption.

You should be using that filter with that engine.

Cpurvis- "burst pressure" being WIX makes them mainly for car engines, i seriously doubt peak oil pressure for these 1 or 2 cyl mower (vs 4-8cyl car motor is it originally for) is anywhere close to reachable.
Klinger- To find the one that fits my Kawi, i brought my used one to walmart and looked at the threds to find mine from Fram\Wix\etc. As I have said with another post- If it works with the flow rate of a car motor, it is fine with a briggs\Kawi\etc. AND it's alot cheaper....
