Generac OIL FILTER 90mm High Capacity for Users

Generac has made notable changes to its oil filter designations. Specifically, the company has dropped the "S" from the extended filter's name and eliminated the "30% More Filter" label from its oil filter product. This change is significant as it reflects the fact that this filter has become the standard for all Generac generators.

The oil filter you will now receive is the extended-life version, measuring 90mm in length. Notably, this new filter is 30% longer than the previous standard filter used in early 2000s models. The part number for this filter is Generac - OIL FILTER 90 LOGO ORNG-CAN - 070185E, which is the OEM oil filter compatible with the majority of Generac engines found in their generators, as well as equipment from other manufacturers, dating from 2008 onwards.

This filter is designed to fit a wide range of Generac generators, including 10, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, and 20kW air-cooled models, as well as Centurion, Siemens, and Eaton standby generators produced after 2008. Additionally, the filter is compatible with all 10 - 17.5 kW Generac XP, XG, and Ultra Source series portable generators.

Although Generac no longer uses the term "30% more filter," the 070185E model is indeed the extended variant that offers this percentage increase compared to the standard 070185 filter. It is worth noting that the 070185E oil filter has since been succeeded by the 070185ES. The additional "S" in this new model signifies merely the change in color to orange. Despite this change in part number and appearance, the 070185ES and 070185E filters are functionally identical in every other way.

This part is compatible with various generator models, including but not limited to: 006237-0, 006240-0, 006437-0, 006243-0, 006244-0, 006241-0, and 006242-0. The new filter serves as a manufacturer substitution; while its appearance may differ slightly from previous models, it functions equivalently to earlier parts, such as the 070185F.

As a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) product, this oil filter (part number 070185E) is tailored for use in Generac generators. When installing this part, it is advisable to wear work gloves to protect your hands.

In summary, the 070185E oil filter represents an important upgrade over the previous designs, culminating in an industry standard product that promises reliability and improved performance in Generac generators and compatible equipment. Be sure to check the part numbers for proper compatibility when making a purchase.
