Omix-Ada 17436.04 - Oil Filter for 1971 Jeep CJ 2.2L

Oil Filter by Omix-Ada®. The moving parts in your engine are cushioned by a very thin film of oil between the moving parts and bearings. If dirt gets in between the bearings and moving parts, oil clearance will become excessive and you may end up with metal-to-metal contact and expensive engine damage. The only thing that can prevent dirt from contaminating your oil is a quality oil filter, like the kind we carry from Omix-Ada.

Features:

• Performs according to OEM specifications
• Meets or exceeds OEM quality standards
• OEM quality at an affordable price
• Identical to original equipment, for perfect fit and function

Engine experts say that dirt particles as small as 10-20 microns are large enough to lodge between moving parts and bearing surfaces and cause engine damage. Dirt and other particles can enter your engine past the air filter, from combustion chamber blowby and from normal engine wear, but there's only one way these contaminants can be removed and that's with your engine's oil filter. Your oil filter has to filter and trap contaminants without impeding oil flow for many thousands of miles.

And while transmissions have more and more electronic features, it's still hydraulic pressure that makes clutches and bands lock, and a clogged filter could restrict fluid flow and cause the transmission to slip.

To protect your valuable engine and transmission, replace the filters at regular intervals. You'll be able to drive secure in the knowledge that you're getting peak performance and maximum protection. These filters are designed and specifically made for your Jeep, by the Jeep experts at Omix-Ada. They'll deliver superior filtration without sacrificing flow.
