My car has 33k on it; yes, the E Bay filter and bracket work out just fine, right price too.
I don't see why a OEM at $70 is necessary; don't need a new bracket and a $13 NAPA/WIX has the right dia and is only a little longer ( the 5/16" tubes).
My old filter seemed to be fine; I back flushed it and only a small amount of debris came out.
So will carry it as a spare................
Thanks again for your help.............

Throw that old filter away, gas has soaked the filter element and will probable turn to gum/varnish making it unuseable.
