The Fram PH-4386 is an oil filter designed for various vehicles to help keep the engine oil clean by trapping contaminants and debris. It features a synthetic blend media for efficient filtration and is built to withstand high pressure and temperature. Regularly replacing the oil filter, like the PH-4386, is crucial for maintaining engine performance and longevity. Always consult your vehicle's manual for compatibility and specifications.
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.

PH4386
The Fram PH4386 oil filter is designed to fit a variety of vehicles, primarily Ford and Lincoln models, particularly those with 4.6L and 5.4L V8 engines. It is important to check your specific vehicle's manual or compatibility guide to ensure a proper fit. The PH4386 is known for its efficiency in filtering oil, contributing to engine protection and performance. Always verify the fitment with your vehicle’s specifications before purchase.
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.
