Need a Fram oil filter equivalent for a kohler engine...

My rider has a Kohler engine. The required oil filter is kh1205001s.

A fram filter would be half as much and I would like to find the equilvalent.

Thanks

Might consider a Wix or top of line Purolator line. Fram always is bottom of the barrel in the oil filter tests that pop up from time to time. Way back when, it was a quality product, then it gradually just became a hyped orange cash cow. And market gets very convoluted as what used to be actual manufacturers just become names slapped on one of 3 or 4 generic filters and sold at a price point to make you think you are buying high quality. Like so much of manufacturing anymore price has nothing to do with actual manufacturing cost or quality, its all about extracting most money from target market at least cost.

I took the number off my briggs & stratton mower filter to napa & they cross referenced to one of their filters which cost about half as much . Your filter number could probably be crossed to any brand filter .

The NAPA filters are made by WIX.
