Mobil 1 oil filter m1-102a

Is this filter ok to use? Auto zone's computers say it is for our Gen 2's. I notice it is about an inch shorter than the toyota one I have in now. I just don't have access to a new Toyota one at this time. I also have an ac Delco oil filter that their computers say fits and it too is shorter than the Toyota one.

 

If it's consistently coming up as a crossover, I'd roll with it. A bit shorter is not likely an issue. Obviously, the key is that the mating surfaces are spot on. Just look at the size of a 3rd Gen cartridge in relationship to its cannister. The element is pretty dinky in comparison. The Mobil 1 should be a good filter, too.

 

Yes....used them for years

 

Great. Thanks Grizzled and Jane!

 

Been going OEM for awhile now, but when I did use mobile one oil filters I could never remember the exact model number for my truck, when in doubt their website allows you to match your year make and model truck with the specific filter, what I always did just for peace of mind.
