Google the filter, (ph3593a fram oil filter). Go to Amazon. On the page their is a link that states all of the vehicles this filter may be used.
First off I would not recommend any Fram filter for any car. They are poor quality filters. Purolator, Wix, & Bosch, are what I recommend. But saying that the correct Fram filter for your 1998 Civic is PH3593A and the PH4386 is not the correct filter.
They make a filter for every car/truck, anything with an engine.
you can look up Fram filter applications on their website: "framcatalog.com" type ph43 into the box on the top left.
Fram C164
This filter is for Toyotas. Tacoma, etc.
Should be a 3.1 V6 in the car. If so...Fram PH3387A
Fiat Doblo (119) model type 1.6 16V (223AXD1A)
It fits a Honda cb700sc Nighthawk motorbike, 1984-86
fram PH 8170
Ph6017a
Fram high millage is PH3506,Fram ultra is XG5,Fram regular is PH6018.That covers most filters that fram make for this model car
Fram should have a cross reference on their website. Also, FRAM filters are garbage. Stick with a WIX or Purolator.
