Agco engine oil filter for Ford 8n?

[kylemorley]

Anyone know if an Agco 835817V91 engine oil filter fits n-series Fords? I stopped at the MF dealer, the only nearby tractor to see if they had a filter for my 8n, and
counterman sold me the Agco swearing it would fit either a n-series or an early MF. But after looking at it more carefully have doubts. The dealer is closed now, so I
can't call to double check, and I was hoping to get the job done tonight).

You want an oil filter that cross references to the FORD 9N6731 part number, simple as that. There are several brands that will work. My local CNH dealer is also the AGCO dealer so if same with yours, or the MF dealer, I'd have them check the part number again. Oil filters are sold just about everywhere. I use mostly the FRAM C-3P filter because it is sold at every auto parts store in town and yes even the place that supposedly stocks tractor parts. I will also use the one sold at my CNH dealer and have used the BALDWIN ones too. Here is a list of oil filter brands that cross reference. Compare the new one to the old and if size is different, then you have a problem.

A Ferguson To30 uses the same filter as an 8n.

"Can use, probably" might be safer. The Agco/MF (it's marked Agco on the packaging but Massey Ferguson on the filter itself) is definately not the same thing. The MF is the same length but not as wide and has rubber seas on both ends while the earlier version has just one And no pull loop on the MF. So it appears to me the filter I have is either just plain wrong, or a redesign to make on part fit more applications pt fit in either way around (which it does).

I went back to the shop to double check, and they told me they'd been using the MF style for years, so I figure that is good enough for me.

Same with the MF202.

I just use the Napa 1010 Gold and have for many years.
