Default oops!!
Thought i would share my noob mistake today. So i went to change oil in the Comanche and bought the same oversized oil filter that i do for my 2000 cherokee. Motorcraft brand. The filter screwed on a little funny but when i started you all can guess what happened. Im going to stick with the oem filter from now on.

I use an oversized amsoil filter on my 2000 Cherokee. Its the filter PH8A in the fram part number. DOES not work on an 88 comanche. Man i feel like an idiot haha.

It was actually of course the wrong filter-not the gasket. same effect.

Lots of times I buy two of whatever-Jeep-thing I need... we have an '88 and a '91, so the oil filters and lots of other bits are different.
