What Brand oil filter do you Kodiak owner's use on your 01-03 Kodiak, Porolater, Ac-delco, Fram, Any part #'s. Yamaha filters sell for $12.50 at yamaha dealer here.

Thanks. Maddog75

 

Yeah I know what you mean, the filters are expensive. There has got to be a filter you can buy at the local auto parts store that would work. I have seen some alternative filters for the Grizzly and Raptor posted by others on this forum, not sure if any of those filters would work or not. I haven't seen anybody post anything about the Kodiak filter as of yet.

 

Just to make you giggle I use Yamaha oil filters in my 88 Ford F 150,I think they only cost like $8-$10 bucks at my dealership.

 

I use Yamaha, 12 bucks American sounds like a rip off! I only pay that Canadian.

I got a question for you kodiak owners though, How do you get it off?? The 2 that i've changed so far I ended up having to stick a screw driver through them and turn it out that way. There is no room for fingers little lone hands! This makes a big mess because all of the oil in the filter runs all over the motor. Do they make those caps for the end of the filter? then i could put an extention on that and turn it out.

Please help!

BTW i got my new water pump and choke cable, what a convenience!!

 

Ok, I did some digging around and FINALLY came up with some replacement filters that will work for the Kodiak, here they are:

Fram-PH6017A
NAPA-1358
WIX-51358
AC-2057.

Amen.

 

Ever see if k&n makes a filter? Mine for my warrior is only about 5 bucks.

 

Buckwheat Thanks for the Information on Kodiak filters.

I went to Wal-Mart, they did have the Fram filter, it was $5.47, so I picked one up. I couldn't find any of the filters at Autozone, I had stopped there first.
