Default Diesel oil filter for NG?
I think I want to run the larger capacity filter. That's from a VW Jetta diesel, right? What year should I be looking for? Also, any down sides to this?

I'm using it in my NG, I think it was an '86 Jetta I looked for.

Might be harder to change to do less clearance. That's all I can think of.

You'll have to buy more oil each time, other than that there's no down side.

It's close to the AC bracket, but it fits!
