Yesterday I tried to pick up an oil filter from the local auto parts store (actually 2 different ones). I had the Mercruiser part number (35-802885T) that is currently installed but they couldn't cross reference it to anything.
1) should I stick to the Mercruiser brand filter only - I suspect Wix, Hastings, Fram or someone makes them for Merc?
2) if OK to use something other than Mercruiser, what after-market filter will work?
3) the parts counter man said Frams are no good - I've always used them. Any thoughts on this?
