The PH4386 Fram filter also fits a 20 hp Briggs engine. I use it in my JD L120 lown mower instead of the $12 filter from the JD Dealer.
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.
Fram Part Number: PH4386 $3.99 got info from autozone.com
