KIT-OIL FILTER - Motorcraft FL-816

Synthetic Oil Application. Premium filter recommended

The engine oil filter removes metal particles, dirt, and combustion byproducts from the oil as it circulates, protecting internal engine components from abrasive wear. Signs that replacement is overdue include: oil that appears very dark and dirty on the dipstick, a filter that is visibly contaminated, or simply exceeding the service interval. Replace the oil filter at every oil change - it is one of the least expensive ways to protect an engine that costs thousands to rebuild.

Motorcraft is Ford Motor Company's OE parts brand, manufacturing components to exact factory specifications. Of particular relevance for Mazda owners: during Ford's partnership with Mazda (2000s-2010s), many Mazda vehicles including the Speed3, Speed6, and NC Miata shared Ford platforms and components. Motorcraft represents legitimate OE-quality parts for these Ford-era Mazdas.
